Light Breeze

As regards feeling pain, like a hand cut in battle, consider the body a robe you wear. When you meet someone you love, do you kiss their clothes?  Search out who's inside. Union with God is sweeter than body comforts.

Well I know very well it’s too perfect, and that’s WHY I’m scared. I’m scared to take any further steps! Therefore, should I let it go? I don’t know why, but for some reasons, I have this wei...
