WRAPPING PAPER

Weggis Switzerland

All sensory pleasures in the world are like wrapping paper; the true bliss is the present inside. Divine love is the present, yet we are holding onto the paper believing we have already enjoyed the gift. It's like putting the chocolate inside your mouth with the paper still on. A little chocolate may seep into the mouth, but the covering makes sores in the mouth. nwrap the present. !he whole world is there for you to enjoy. !he wise know how to enjoy the gift inside, while the ignorant get stuck with the paper.
