When things seem to turn out right, something always goes wrong.
I am an optimist by nature, but lately, not so much.
I find the Garden of Eden to be a myserious place, where peace begins and love remains. It is the forbidden room in a mansion's west wing. It holds the keys to life evermore. It was the beginning of the end.
There was nothing to worry about there...or was there?
How did this serpant, so undetected find his way inside the garden, inside Eve's heart, and capture her soul?
Who are the serpants in our life? The ones that lead us in a different direction. The ones that talk us out of going the right direction.
What is the right direction? Does anyone really know? Every road leads to somewhere...but how do we know were it leads until we get there?
On another note:
I am frustrated tonight at the road I am on. I am tired. I am so angry with people. Everywhere I turn, people in my life let me down. They are so unloyal. They never say what they mean. They speak out of two sides of their mouth, and when caught, they act like it's my fault.
I am so tired of being the peacemaker, I am tired of turning the other cheek. When is it time to call it quits and throw in the towel? Is it ever time?
I trust everyone. I trust them until I can't. I give everyone the benefit of the doubt, and treat everyone with dignity and respect. In return, I get rejected and turned away. I get forgotten.
This isn't a "woe is me pity party time". It's a time where I just feel like screaming! My heart hurts so bad it doesn't know what to do anymore...

I sometimes connect Eve with Mary and wondered about the "ponderings" of these women...
Not that that it relates to all of your post, just a thought.
Peace.
No, it seems a related thought...
Eve holding the fall of the world on her shoulders and Mary watching the Saviour for it born, grow, and die, and to see him alive again...I am sure they pondered, very much.
