Jude is driving his car going north. He has the top down on his car and his blond hair flies in the wind. He has on a white tshirt and sunglasses. The day is nice, a bit cool but nice, and the sun shines brightly.
He is driving southeast corn fields, vast lands of corn between Austin and San Antonio, they are known as corn land, aptly so. As you drive along for over 70 miles all you see are corn and farm houses. Its as if you stepped back in time to a hundred years ago. It is quite calming. Driving through mostly these dirt roads, you get to think that this is all there is in the world.
As for the corn itself. I am not a huge fan of corn, rarely do I have it. And when I have, its been in another country and eaten in a way that most Americans have not tried. It is corn on the cob, but the corn is white and not yellow. It is doused in lime juice, salt, mayo, and a very spice red sauce, as if they liquefied hot cheeto dust and lathered it on the corn. It is quite exquisite and takes perfect. You all should try it one day.
Anyway back to the corn fields. Every year, one of the owner of the cornfields creates a maze, a corn maze. It is fun for all the family. They have a petting zoo for the kids, some small rides a tractor pull where people ride on hay on its back. Its corny and cheezy but if you take your family they will all have fun. Good wholesome fun. So its safe to say I have never been there, having no family of my own but I often wonder about going through the maze. It seems interesting and I hear in October they make it a scary corn maze, with scary clowns coming out of the corn and others creeps and ghouls as well. It sounds fun, unnecessary but fun.
But fun and enjoyment are things I have never really had much experience with. I am a bit sour, life can get you that way sometimes. Well a lot of times. But that is just how it is. No sense crying over spilt milk. I cant seem to remember there ever being a time when I wasn't the way I am. Seems that part of my life has been erased. Or maybe it was never there to begin with. Who really knows. Its not like I really care anymore.
Now lets concentrate on Twilight. Oh my dear friend, I love how you tell your stories. I remember Shadow used to be a great storyteller. Probably the best that ever was in this business. But you are not him. Not even close. But even with all your lives you still have a lot to learn. At least about me. I think you have me confused with someone else. I am not the lighbringer. I am not a saint. I am not the leader or the guider. I am simply me. I understand what you are saying but I cannot be what SFT needs nor wants right now. I leave that in the hands of the owner and perhaps god himself, if he really cares, which I am certain he does not. Why would he care? We are insignificant. Trust me on that.
I am not here to preach nor to teach. I only know what I know to be true. God is nowhere. God is absent and god hates us, or at the very least hates me. Some believe that god is above all that. That he only loves but does not hate. I would promptly say they are incorrect. His lack of love goes far and wide. But do not confuse what I am saying. I believe in God. With all my heart and soul. Even if my brain and heart tell me otherwise. But just because I believe does not make it right. There is too much wrong with the world, too much pain and despair. Too much suffering and heartache. And with each person that gets taken from us, we learn just how much God can hurt us in this little world of ours. We are not his children but his burden. And with all burdens they get to be too much.
(Jude smiles)
But I am not here to convince you of what I believe. I am here to just enlighten you. Twilight you have grown so much in the years. You have wisdom and experience well beyond your years and your lives.
What I wanted to hear from you is a story in which you saw god’s touch and his presence known. Tell me did you see any proof of god in Jeville? No, I would gather you did not. You see God does have a plan for us all, but that doesn’t mean its necessarily a good plan. Just a plan.
Some might point out the beauty in our lives and the world around us. But just as you see that beauty there is also darkness and pain. So much so that we forget that too is part of his plan. Some say that without pain and suffering there can be no grace or love. I would say they have not suffered enough, for them to say that is not smart.
The world is full of darkness. And I am not the light. I am just another lost sheep in a sea of lost sheep. And I do not think I can find my way back to the light or back into his so called loving embrace. There is no hope for me, and thus I cannot afford any hope for anyone else. I am sorry my friend, that is just how it is.
I want to wish you a happy thanksgiving and forgive me if I have to face you on Titans. But we have to do what we are asked to do. I hope you understand.
