i'm having trouble disrupting!! argh, stupid army.. so many rules... i've served 2 years already man.. give me a break.
fft: if our god is about love, this is no wrong kind of love is there? it feels pure, child-like, not of greed and is selfless, in and about itself. no matter what the cynics say.. i hate to talk bout religion..and or god, it's a personal topic and journey.
St John of the Cross wrote the following poem when he was destitute and suffering physical pain in prison. he lived by the belief that "Where there is no love, put love -- and you will find love." in this following poem, he wrote of god i believe:
0 night, my guide
0 night more friendly than the dawn!
0 tender night that tied lover and the loved one,
loved one in the lover fused as one!
On my flowering breasts
which I had saved for him alone,
he slept and I caressed and fondled him with love,
and cedars fanned the air above.
Wind from the castle wall
while my fingers played in his hair: its hand serenely fell wounding my neck,
and there my senses vanished in the air.
I lay. Forgot my being,
and on my love I leaned my face.
All ceased. I left my being,
leaving my cares to fade among the lilies far away.
what would people think of such a love at this day? is he crazy? blasphemous? open your eyes people.. theres more to love than the conventional. mmkay? good. now shut up and sit down please.
