Hunger

I went to the church today and listened to that Irish priest while he was delivering the homily. He talked about hunger.

Firstly, hunger for importance. We all want to be respected and to be of great worth to others. We want others to know that we are significant. Secondly, hunger for hope. No matter how life gives us problems. We still hope for the best. We hope that one day, life will be better. Thirdly, hunger for relationship. We always want to belong to someone. To be part of that someone's life. Fourthly, hunger for acceptance. We always seek approval from the people we meet in our everyday lives. We want to be accepted by the people we care about. Fifthly, We always have this yearning to love and to be loved by people. And this is hunger for love. Many people thought this is the greatest hunger we have. But there is one more, this hunger makes people want some more. This is the hunger for the Infinite. We all seek His presence.

I am not sure, if I did get the message of the priest correctly. But these are the things my small brain remembers.

P.S. Happy Sunday Everyone.
