Valentine’s Day Meditations

The loss of love is like leaving Eden

If you fell,

Then fall to rise.

If you betrayed

At least betray to incarnate steadfast faith and honesty.

If you were false and dishonest

Then do not betray your integrity.

Be ye but this alone:

True in all things.

Mediations or Meditations?

Mea culpa? Or felix culpa… (!)

I often think of alternate realities like The Last Temptation. I could have turned back; I could have got married, had kids, all that comfortable bourgeois respectability. But I would failed to have been truly human: because for me, to life is to create. God forgive me.
