Divine Breath

Divine breath in me why have Thee imprisoned Thyself within the walls of the temporal?

Love these one line statements that cause one to examine one's self. I think I'm drawn to you because of them. I used to love Aesop as a young girl and kept a book of his writings. I believe the Divine does not imprison itself. It sojourns to teach us something and when we have learned we release it to teach others. God Bless, JB

Thank you dear, Judy, for liking Aesop I like him too and have got all his myths as well as, almost, all the writings of the main Greek philosophers, since I have studied and taught philosophy! It is a pleasure to receive your visit! PS: When the eternal is confined within the temporal only as an imprisonment could be seen!

Sometimes is not necessary to use many words when something we wish to say could be better understood with few! I appreciate your visit and precious comment dear, Paloma! Thank you so much!
