Honest Love    

William Samuel

Once upon a time I had the notion that "Truth" was supposed to help me eliminate my trials and tribulation.  I guess I expected the tree's shadow to go away when I finally discovered the tree.  It didn't. But my attention shifted somewhat from the shadow to the tree, so I wasn't as conscious of the shadow as before.  But there is never a day when I don't STILL see the shadow as before and have to remind myself that the shadow led me straight to the tree -- what a blessing for that.  

Our search for the Tree of Life doesn't end the shadows of mortality.  At least it never has for me.  I've never INTENDED to give an impression otherwise.

Keep on keeping on.  So will I.
