Self Wealth Deficit

Wealth of two masters… `Tis an amazing thing One mysteriously an illusion… Of the mind one is serpent Though by the essence of the dove… And by the power of love That the soul of love In the power of the dove… Sows by the serpent of strife The armageddon in life In a strait betwixt twain Fearful to depart Foolish to remain… Remaining vain begets the twain Illusions that are unstable Pretending to be life Borrowing from Able Giving Cain his knife Living below heaven’s glow Spreading the dog show borrowing from Dove… True wealth of Love… Deficit pretends that China… Is from above Illusions shall wane Reality shall remain Deficit illusions vain `Tis faith of a kind… True wealth of a Master mind… True particles of heavenly Adamantine ================================== “No man can serve two masters” “Mysterious Iniquity works self deficit” (Matt. 6:24) (II Thes. 2:7 KJV) Selah

can the schitzophrenic serve more than masters one, does he think second coming, wife is dumb, when she don't remember the fun, he had an hour ago, but was it he?

Im wondering if when we are hypnotised and they find other people to talk to from so called previous lives...do we have the other personalitys stored or connected waiting for schitzo...or to take over as a backup like a spare cd for your computer???

This would have made a terrific entry for your own contest, John. I especially like "Reality shall remain , Deficit illusions vain." We have choices to make in life. We can follow our hearts or our minds. You definitely write from your heart. I am still out of town and have sent you some emails. Hope you had a happy Christmas, my friend. Enjoy the holidays and best wishes for the coming new year! Love always, Carolyn

The heart is and holds the central core wisdom of ones true superior being, it is the mind which is the parasite, robbing the soul: While claiming to be the persona.
