I have long wondered
At the thinness of whatever membrane may exist between "good" and "evil";
Maybe there's nothing between tham at all.
Look at literature.......
Obi-Wan Kenobi's most brilliant and powerful Jedi was Darth Vader;
Jesus' closest and most intelligent disciple was Judas;
God's nearest and loveliest angel was Lucifer (which, by the way, means "light").
They got so close,
Then miss-stepped.
What happened? What intervened?
These questions I stand in -- for me;
You might like to stand in them too, for yourself --
And remember there can be no wrong answers.
All the great disciples get close,
But no cigar.
Religion gets close.
The "ologies" (pun intended) get so close!......
And they all miss by a country mile
And fall into the deepest of endarkenments.
To say that this journey of evolving and transforming
Is challenging and self-confronting
Would be the understatement of all time,
And I'm beginning to discover that it doesn't get any less so
The nearer I get to the ultimate "got-it".
No wonder so few people take the road less travelled
Onward into forever.
If you're committed to come with us,
Pack plenty of Integrity, Self-honesty, Courage, Trust, Self-reliance, Enthusiasm and Humility;
Any you don't need for yourself,
You can share with your fellow adventurers.
