If I speak of love as a power


If I speak of love as a power, it is as the wind that blows the wave that, after a time, bends the tree that faces the ocean.  Impatience and swiftness will break the limb.  Patience and persistence will shape.  So, I speak of time as your friend. 

My beloveds, you must stay in the sun.  No matter what the depiction, no matter what the illusion.  Do not resist.  Let the waves go where they must, but you are drawn irresistibly by the strong, deliberate, invincible currents of the Master most high.
