I Dreamed I Had an Interview with God by James J. Lachard (Jim Brown)
"So, you would like to interview me?" God asked. "If you have the time," I replied, and God smiled. "My time is eternity. What questions do you have in mind for me?"
"What surprises you most about humankind?" I asked. God answered, "They get bored with childhood, rush to grow up, and then long to be children again. They sacrifice their health to make money and then spend that money to restore their health. By worrying about the future, they forget the present, living in neither. They live as if they will never die and die as if they had never lived."
We were silent for a moment before I continued. "As a parent, what life lessons do you want your children to learn?" God replied with a smile, "To understand they cannot make anyone love them, but they can let themselves be loved. To know it's harmful to compare themselves to others. To recognize that the richest person isn't the one with the most, but the one who needs the least. To learn that it only takes a few seconds to create deep wounds in those we love, and many years to heal them. To practice forgiveness. To realize that some people may love them deeply but struggle to show it. To see that two people can view the same thing differently. To understand that being forgiven by others isn't always enough; they must also forgive themselves. And to learn that I am always here."
