Lessons of the Heart
The words of your heart bear great lessons to be mastered
Heed them well
Believe in your heart what you know in your mind
Only then will forgiveness come
Only then will the numbness be washed away
Strive not to alter all that which you may think flawed
Perfection is fit only for the gods
and it can be see that even they find its demands excessive
Imperfection is the beauty of mortality
It brings what is unique and special to each mortal soul
It is what gives them life
Do not fear love
It is much more difficult to allow another to love you
than it is for you to love that other
For it means really loving yourself first
Love yourself, rejoice in your mortality
Appreciate the beauty of simplicity
and find simplicity even in complexity
It is there
Be wary, but learn to trust
Without it your breath will be smothered by the
heaviness of the shroud of loneliness in which you cloak yourself
Run naked among the trees
Dance with the wind
Sing with the songbird
Let your soul take flight in order to know the freedom of the heavens
Find peace within yourself
For only then can you taste the true sweetness of the fruits of life
And when you have, join me at the feast
Drink of sweet nectre, find sustenance in that peace and enjoy the company of those who
truly love you and whom you truly love
For you see, bliss and contentment also feast at that same table
And they shall become your life long companions
helping you to pass away the eternal night
