Love, Truth, Consciousness and Bliss... if we can follow these, we can live a happy and fulfilled life…
Athyasa… she was called.
A wonderer… she was.
A lover… in every sense.
Athyasa was moving around in her bed, a soft sigh escaping her lips every now and then. She was feeling burdened by emotions. She had seen things she should never have seen. She had heard things which should never have touched her petal ears. She had experienced emotions, He wished, she didn't have to. And yet, God knew – He couldn't protect her any further. As He watched His child sleep, He knew her time had come… to go on the great mighty Earth. And this was just training. There, she would go through much more. He felt a strange protective love for this little angel. Was it the way her hair curled, or the way her thin pink lips smiled; was it in the sweetness of her voice, or the tenderness of her heart? He felt for her in ways He hadn't for years together. He could not understand it and had stopped trying to understand.
Tomorrow he would bid her goodbye. And He found Himself filled with a mixed bag of emotions. He knew the Earth needed her – but a part of Him was just not ready to let go. He would have to, He knew. She was ready. Maybe He wasn't. He sat a while longer and watched her – not knowing when He would see her again. It would be a while, yes, it would be a while.
Athyasa fluttered her eyes open and saw Him! Her sun. Her smile. Her reason for existence. As she watched the half-formed tears in His eyes, she knew it was time… they would be parting soon. For a while, at least. Tears fell from the almond brown-black eyes of their own accord.
The two gazed at each other for a while. The beauty of true, pure love… words are often redundant.
