as I was sitting and about to write a friend of my came to see and say, I was reading your letter, poems, song, stories and I wonder why each time the writer change. and I say be of good cheer for you have seen a secret. and I'll tell you this secret and not write it again, cause the female must do the work, and I told my friend the secret for he have seen in the writing, and truly was he surprise. than I bibs him not to tell this secret to nobody. and he say I am truly blessed to have seen this secret. but why make them hard for man to see? and I say, because you have seen this secret your soul wonder the question, I am allow to reveal one secret now take your time to think of one question to ask me. and he sat and thought for an hour, than say to me, why do the writer face change each time? and I say, the human - being has many roots, for in the life time of human - being the roots must have their say. none of them must be deny their rights. this is a great thing you're saying to me, and my mind can not understand it, than I say, you must allow the whole body to understand not the mind alone, the body and the soul must understand together so that the tongue to tell it. than I say, I shall tell you this, what did the father created first the soul or the spirit, and he reply, the spirit, than I say, who are the greater of the two? he reply the spirit. I than reply, neither for both are great in power, but it is the spirit that teaches the soul and the soul the body, for the body is the weaker of the three. now as far as sin there is no such thing, it's called good or bad deeds, and I shall tell you their names, the first is Darkness,graving, ignorance,jealousy mixed with rage,enslavement, intoxicated, guileful. these are the seven that enslaves the body and soul, it can not the spirit, for the spirit run freely always. and than my friend left and I stop writing to place my pen down.
