THE POPE AND THE QUEEN
Growing up with the personalities like the Pope and the Queen, was interesting.
One wanted the house perfect, with no words spoken, only duty to perform the women chores as a wife.
A wife in her duty to her husband and family, no other issue could come before. The Queen always wanted her freedom, to do works of charity, to work outside the house, to look beautiful and to have fun and to join groups of interest.
The Pope only wanted prayer and domination over the women and the house. Not allowing for work or anything else. The Queen rebelled and took her liberty, causing a break in the household.
The Queen wanted all the things that were around her, like having fun and making herself feel good.
The Pope had no patience for fun or games, only a serious face, that made us all feel afraid.
The Queen took her time but made her way, to live the life that she had always dreamed.
The Pope was greedy sometimes, because he failed to let the Queen grow. Causing the family to suffer a blow. The blow was felt by the whole group leaving a trajectory that set a path for all to see.
The Pope and the Queen set a tone, for many years would be felt, like the scar on skin, the past always leaves a mark.
The Pope and the Queen, could have made better choices, leaving others with brighter memories.
So, when you think, remember you could be like them, so make a mark with your life, that will led to brighter paths for all of us.
Life is a path, we make the path, light it with our choices, love and forgive and correct when we can, this may make a better tomorrow for all.
Lifting prayers to God, today and always.
