Them ~ Me

To
My Family
For their abundant support,
for their patience and understanding,
And for their unconditional love.

To
Her
For her sisterly warmheartedness,
for her loyalty and honesty,
for her trustworthiness with my hopes, my dreams, my fears and my worries,
And for her caring dedication to showing me passion, excitement and joy.

To
Him
For his faithful belief,
for his honorable nature,
for his inspirational devotion to intellect,
for his admirable generosity and strength.
And for his guidance in loving concern.

Faithful dreams do not drown

In a godforsaken town,
Where dreams are set to drown.
Unlawful and full of theft,
Yet there we were placed and left.
Sometimes It gets lonesome,
For it is roofless and loathsome.
I don't stay below most water,
For I am blessed to be a daughter.
And always with me is my sacred love,
Sent from heaven up above.

Let me be rewarded with what I have earned and let me be punished for what I deserve.

Forbidden fruit

The warning said they would surely die if they tasted the forbidden fruit. True.
The Serpent replied this would only happen if the desire of the Soul receives it selfishly, for itself alone. True.
One must receive for the sake of sharing.
However, taking the first bite was not a problem - at first. For it was an angelic Sharing of light.
It is that after the first bite, the soul's desire for it multiplies enormously, becoming bound by a strong craving for more while a Self-interest was awakened. One that will have you wind up in a darkness.

The key is not to resist the light, for there is a Light that shares and a Soul that receives. Embrace and know, truly know in your heart, what the generous nature means and how to let it flow before you decide to receive any light prematurely.
