Puppet Master



There is a joker amongst the court.
He sings and plays all day long.
He is full of spirits and humor,
But isn't very tall.

 He is loved by all.

 Alas, they don't know; 
He is not the joker at all. 
For in their comfort, 
They reveal their hand to him without fault.

 He controls them all.
Each one having a part, 
In his orchestrated ball.

 He is the puppet master,
Who sees all.

The Beginning: Depths of Love.

Image
Good Evening, I had hope that my break form my blog would be longer than this. However, I feel a pull to start this next set of blogs a lot sooner than I anticipated.  Let me first begin by explaining the premise around this blog, now. For those who have followed me from the beginning - this blog has seen many faces. First - my life in solitude when I ran away to Texas. Second - My growth in spirituality into Orthodoxy. And now - there is, yet a new face to my blog. It is one that is most personal and fairytale like/ hopeless romantic.  I hope you all have fun with this one.  Background: There is no question to the depths in which I fall in love. I am irrational and very much a fool when it does happen. On a psychological level it probably stems from my need for acceptance and constant self evaluation. I can honestly say that I've only truly been in love twice in my life and that does not include my 3.5 year relationship which is rather unfortunate to admit....

Coptic Orthodox Part 1

Through my research, I decided that I would check out Coptic Orthodox first. Coptic is the Greek word for Egyptian. Nah... To be honest, it was pure curiosity which started about a year ago when I looked into the meaning behind the wedding ceremony of Coptic Christians. Heck, my initial reactions were "Dang, there's a crown and they wear a robe???" But as I read further the beauty and symbolism behind the pomp and circumstance spoke to me. However, I told myself "No, your curiosity is because you're dating someone of this faith." And I left it at that for the longest time because I felt the integrity of my curiosity would be seen as someone who was purely infatuated with her dating prospects. (That whole dating subject and person matter is to be left in God's hands and will no longer be discussed on a public forum). In any case, I was still very curious several months down the road, so I began my online search for information about Coptic Christi...

Where do you start?

When I first decided to tackle this idea in August, I had no idea where to begin. To be honest, I still have no idea where to begin and what is the most appropriate means of deciding a denomination. Don’t put it pass me to sit in the middle of the desert one of these days hoping to find God. I tend to do crazy things. At one point, I decided that I wanted to be Orthodox Jewish and I was CONVINCED! Before I started to really dive into my search of a denomination, I started from the beginning. There are three basic branches of Christianity. They are: Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant. Yes, I am well aware that there’s another branch called Restorantionists but that’s more recent in history and only dates back to the Second Awakening (early 1800s). I wanted to break things down to bare basics. If you really want to get down to it, here's a diagram of the major branches of Christianity. This is going to sound awful but straight off the bat, I crossed out Catholicism. Not...
