For a loss to occur first before the value of life is understood shows a gross negligence to the invitation to inner richness. The depth of life awaits any one who goes searching for beauty and truth.
To discard that which is not understood because of the belief in illusions is to transfer a malaise slowly, at first, as mould spores can undetected to the eye. The mould spores job is to decompose life.
Through the allegories of Hercules and Gilgamesh, the mind is shown the difference between altruism and coveting. The denial of the difference stems not from indifference, but from the fear of the weight of responsibility knowing carries with it.
Somewhere between our entry to the world and booming adults we forget to nurture and cherish the responsibility to knowledge. The pain of thrusting our inner trust into others runs deep throughout the ancestries of many.
And so many great weights are sewn into the fabric of our lives. Therefore, the intention though these words, as rivers of light and dark are before your eyes, invitations to remember. The invitations to linger on the discreet maturation processes different for every body, and yet to remember that inner call each of our lights’ carries.
