Choice of Two Pick One

Life is a scale of balance
One heaver than other
When the scale is tipped
One will fall, the other will rise
One cannot be all good
Nor one cannot be all bad
It’s in-between that matters
Those who see only good
Are hiding in God’s garden
Those who see only evil
Are not in God’s garden
Without one or the other
There would be no balance
You would have no choice to chose
Adam and Eve hid from God
They both were confused
They had no balance of,
Good or Evil it was,
The Very first Choice of man
This, I believe was their sin
A baby without knowledge
Cannot chose from sour or sweet
Until they taste one of each
Giving them balance between the two,
one cannot chose one
But two has a choice
To chose one or the other
You have a choice,
To balance life
Between God and Satan
Tipping your scale up or down
