Simplicity of the Eternal

Love accumulates and grows, eternally.
All else quickly fades away.

Many seek something that will last
never seeing the simple and obvious,
putting great effort and faith into things
as if those trinkets could give a taste of satisfaction.

But dip your cup now
into this abundant source of intoxication in your breast.
The water grows sweeter the more you drink.
It is your personal well, drink all you want.

Truly only one thing is worth having
and only one thing is eternal.

Smile My Heart

Faith is a precious jewel.
It is magic that makes the impossible possible.
It does not mean believing what you do not believe.
It means realizing that it is at least possible that the heart’s desire can be fulfilled.
This alone allows the heart to soar and opens heavy doors.
Doors that we had been using a good deal of energy to keep shut.
Smile my heart.
All is well.

Role Reversal

It is the height of injustice
that a powerful king must feed on the crumbs of a lowly slave.
