what's there left to say - continued

what is there left to say? this question has really left me speechless, but not fingerless, so on i type.

from a guy who seems to have absolutes on his mind and is quick to avoid modernism or post-modernism and whatever else is going to come after that, i can't say that i have an absolute answer to this. this question has left me a bit stunned because i realize my error in some of my writing and in some of the ways that i have dealt with people.

i was so confident that my way was right and don't get me wrong. i do believe in absolutes because, to be frank, they exist. there is God. there is sin. there is salvation. there is heaven and there is hell. and i know that not everyone believes this or knows this. but my error lied in the fact that i came from such an arrogant place that i had ignored the heart of the matter. i had all the "right" answers, all the "good" advice, but i lacked compassion and sympathy. i desired sacrifice, not mercy. i did not understand in what was being said, i only heard what was wrong and wanted to correct it like some lazy Solomon, who got his answers from google. so i ask for forgiveness in my lack of understanding, in listening, in loving. and that brings us to the question: what else is there to say?

in hope that this question will expand upon this question, may i add what else is there to do?

after you say i love you. after you marry. after you live joyfully for so many years. what else is there to say and do? after confessing my belief in absolutes, dare i answer with one? no, i won't. at least i don't believe that these answers are the only ones, i'm sure there are others. there are many answers to this question and i can think of a couple right now. that's right, i have more than one answer and it's for me as well as for the originator of the question that it may be encouraging and help him.

keep growing. obvious i know. what else is there to say or do? find out. keep seeking and trying to find out what to say and/or do. grow in that love, in understanding one another. complacency is an enemy and like you want to grow as a person and in one's career, we must fight to grow. why? reasonable follow up question and another obvious answer to why we should fight.

to enjoy. we enjoy love. love wouldn't be worth doing, let alone fighting for, if it wasn't enjoyable. there is joy in love and we should enjoy that or else it'll just pass by or, even worse, die.

so what else is there to say and do? i say this in hope: a lot.
