The Mindful Gardener. (a Parable of sorts..)

The Mindful Gardener.
_________________

She who sees beyond
the veil knows better
than most the Nature
of this tragedy,..
how the script is writ,
and who the actors
are.

Yet knowing, and
understanding does
little to change what
seems inevitable.
Thus she wrings her
hands in bleak despair,
raging vainly
against the Poisoned
Tongues of
heartless Thespians
who oppose Love's Truth
with Hollow Words,
and Mindless Slogans.

As I have said in
former verse,..fighting
fire with fire will in no
way help prevent this
world from burning;
yet the Irony is that most
of the world needs to burn,
in order to allow more
positive growth.

This is the parable of
the Mindful Gardener,
who sets fire to dead
fields, so that new seeds
may bloom from the ashes
of those Fallen.

Do not feel helpless
my kindred. For Eyes
open to the Horror see
best the path which leads
to The salvation of this Mass!

You are not Alone,
But in the presence
of every spirit now and
passed; and Their Pain is
the blanket which comforts you.

Let them be your guide.

A Part of Your World.

A Part of Your World.

I put no Trust in Fools who
promise The World, for it is
not theirs to offer;
but my admiration grows for
any Noble Soul who offers to
give everything they have.
(even if the only thing they have
is Love.)

Those who give the entirety of
themselves for Love, abandon
the ever-present selfishness that
seems common to the majority
of man; and by doing so they will
increase the prosperity of the world.

A Man without a house to sleep in
can find a Home in the Heart of
his Love, just as a Rich Man who
owns 20 houses can be relatively
homeless if he lacks someone to share
his Home with.

It's about what you are willing to give,
or in some instances do without which
determines whether or not your love is
True.

So remember "The World" is not yours
to offer, but you can always offer to make
those you Love the BEST part of Your World.
