Installing Love

 

I liked this little story a lot and being the geek that I am,

I thought I would share it.

We are not called to go where it is easy and love already exists. 

We are called to go where we are sent and bring love with us. [Anon.]

Subject: Installing Love

 

Tech Support:  Yes, how can I help you?   

Customer:   Well , after much consideration, I’ve decided to install Love.   

Can you guide me through the process?   

Tech Support:  Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?   

Customer:  Well, I’m not very technical, but I think I’m ready. What do   I do first?   

Tech Support:  The first step is to open your Heart. Have you located   your Heart?   

Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now. Is it   okay to   install Love while they are Running?   

Tech Support:  What programs are running?   

Customer:  Let’s see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge and Resentment running right now.   

Tech Support:   No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory but it will no longer   Disrupt other programs. Love will eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from Being properly installed. Can you turn those off?   

Customer:  I don’t Know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?   

Tech Support:  With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke   Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and Resentment have been completely erased.   

I loved this!   

Customer:  Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that   normal?   

Tech Support:  Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.   

Customer:  Oops! I have an error message already. It says, “Error – Program not run on external components.” What should I do?   

Tech Support:  Don’t worry. It means that the Love program is set up to   run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before you can Love others.   

Customer:  So, what should I do?   

Tech Support:  Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the following files:   Forgive-Self; Realize Your Worth; and Acknowledge your Limitations.   

Customer:  Okay, done.   

Tech Support:  Now, copy them to the “My Heart” directory. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty programming   Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.   

Customer:  Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files. Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying themselves  all over My Heart.  Is this normal?   

Tech Support:  Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but eventually   everything   gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed and running. One more thing before We hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure to give it  and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in turn share it with others and return some cool  modules back to you.   

Customer:  Thank you, God.
