| What is perverse? A man loving a man, a woman loving a woman, a sister loving a brother? Love goes beyond mere human constructions, when it happens it happens. True love, utter giving, is never perverse. It is humans who are perverse in their fear of what they don't understand. |
| You can learn so much. And yet you want to treasure that knowledge yourself, for others cannot be trusted with such a prize. You will always know the one to trust. At least you hope so. And when you need to talk, all you need to do is find that person to talk to, for it is them we depend on. |
| We await the truth of life. But that in itself is hard enough to believe, for nothing is what it seems. Believe in the fear and the faith of the mind for it is that that controls us, and other people. Believe and you can become. But without that belief we are nothing. |
| If we can only step beyond our senses, break the chains of illusion which create and sustain our 'real' world, we could enter the Kingdom of Intelligence and experience the sublime enlightenment to be found within its divine light. |
| So here's my story. It's for those of you whom I owe an explanation. But remember, I'm not sorry. |
| Can we always know what to expect? Is anything able to be changed? Not everyhting turns out as we want it to, the path we want can be ripped from under our feat, others deciding it's what thay want with their selfishness, and never consider how others might think. It will happen regardless of what we think of do. The shock grips you, envelopes you, numbing your body and senses until all you can feel is the pain that eats away your soul. |
| Are we not chained to this world by our senses, believing only what thay perceive? How do we know what is true reality? We might only be analysing mere illusion, those shadows cast by the light of the kingdom. |
| We are all part of the music of the universe. There is no division between us and any other mote of energy. We are the song. |
| The only way is through. But only when we think about it do things become clear, when we can do this it makes sense. Automaticism cannot be controlled, but it lives within us, it posseses us, it takes over our mind and does not let our true selves follow or take the chances. But not taking those chances, that is not strictly true. We are carried along with this posesion, we are dragged along whether it is our will and want or not. Interfearance, the fear within ourselves, the ones we bury deep and plan never to think of them again. |
| Our view of what the world is keeps us sane. No one wants that fundamentally challenged. We don't want our image of the world to leak. |
| When we look into the past we see a window into the present and all the great kings of legend are walking upon a road towards us. |
| We should all be allowed to relish the blessing of sexual attraction, whatever its type. I don't see why our particular version of longing is regarded as an illness to be cured, a curse to be endured or an abberation to be punished. Why are we supposed to be ashamed? Why is it hammered into us that we should be ashamed? It's part of us - our character. It's our identity and we didn't have a choice, we are all slaves to our own body chemistry after all, so why should we be singled out for blame about that? Our so-called 'condition' should be embraced as one expression of normal emotional intermacy. It's in our nature to prefer deep relationships with the same gender. To deny us that - or to try and 'cure' it - is a crime against nature. |
