Had a great health session last night, reading my book
about a Petit Prince
character, Anastasia BEING a very
sophisticated Petit
Prince, the series reads like allegories
lifting me out of the
dark in my own mind to the heavenly
realms of pure mental
joy and experience – even if the
darkness rolls back
afterwards, the health and vigour
engendered by the
laughter stay with me also
Reading the Bible is
like going back to my childhood home
crammed with
perplexities and mysteries and dark threats
but very comforting
in the familiarity of all the well-known
menaces. I love
reading Proverbs and dreaming about
the purity of the woman
called Wisdom calling on all to
follow her, the
loveliness of Integrity as another one
and Honesty wearing a
beautiful blue dress
When I read Paul –
the book of Acts – my hair stands on
end, it feels like plunging
straight back into medieval times
when all bodily
existence was sin and being a human meant
to be the personification
of evil and perdition; reading Acts
the other day was a
quick visit to past despair
