Trust and Betrayal

" ...betrayal begins with trust."                   ~ Quote_ Phish   Our trust presupposes expectation, based on a script, being but delusion, which is the root cause of our frustration; betrayal plunging mind in confusion. Love that’s true seeks no reciprocation and so the fault line is egoic longing, which over time becomes our fixation; seeking somehow a sense of belonging. If we accept all beings as they are, recognising we’re but actors on stage, we’ll always shine like a luminous star, radiating bliss like a tranquil sage. Let not betrayal, diminish souls light ~ May we effuse love by day and by night 22-May-2023 __________ Writing Challenge - B Quotes - Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France
