Cohabitation

Carnal and spiritual desires are cohabited in Man for life's glory!*

* Note: Here I am not talking about Good and Evil but about carnal and spiritual desires. Spiritual desires are pure but carnal desires some may be 
good i.e. food, drink, procreation and others if they surpass the golden mean, may become impure! Man needs both for to exist and for to have a good life!

Getting the right balance is so important though otherwise one can easily fall in to the trap of lustful sin. Tom

You are so right man needs both to exist, but there is a fine line between the two and caution, judgement and careful consideration is needed to reach a happy balance. An excellent thought to ponder my dearest friend....Maria xxx

The key word is balance my dear friend, Vijay! So easy to say, so difficult, almost impossible, to keep! Thank you for liking my flowers as well!
