Indoctrinated

I was doctored
Before I was sick
Getting ahead of disease
Is the trick
...to being

I was wrong
Before I was right
Placed in between
Evil and light
...to struggle

I was cursed
Before I was blessed
Redemption needed
To enter rest
...as a baby

I was rescued 
Before I was bound
Pleasures denied
Just as they were found
...in hope

Punishment a promise
Before reward was offered
All I could ever desire
Sacrificed on an altar
...of an AWFUL god

TRUTH appeared............

                 Now, WHAT?????

Written by Trudy Schrader on 07/26/2020


Note: Growing up in any society, we are taught WHAT to believe rather than how to think and how to process information. I think about Jim Jones, David Koresh and others who were obviously, mentally ill, but so were their followers, so easily indoctrinated. Why is it so easy for us to swallow, hook, line and sinker, belief systems based in punishment and reward rather than the TRUTH...God means to enjoy us? May we all come to know Daddy God as LOVE, because that is His name.
