I know every dialogue in the movie ‘Troy’ by heart! This scene embedded below is an epic dialogue from the movie where Prince Hector, heir to the throne, commander of the armies of Troy prepares his men for battle with this speech. This movie compelled me to research a bit about Greek mythology. With Brad Pitt as ‘Achilles’ and Chris Hemsworth playing ‘Thor’ later, Greek mythology became really fascinating. All the Greek gods are so handsome and perfectly sculpted!
The Binary Code – poem by Ruelha
All my life, I've lived by a code And the code is simple Honour the gods; love your partner, and defend your country! These three deserve utmost respect and your fidelity! All of my life, I've lived in binaries Even before I did not have diaries I seen everything as 'one' or 'zero' In hindsight, my vision may have been narrow All my life, I saw things as black or white With all the disparities and inconsistencies, despite I never considered there could be some gray I've always been exactly this way Things were either right or wrong No extending borders, once they were drawn It's either true or false Those were straight walls It's either a yes or a no Things were'nt flexible like play-doh It's either dead or alive You either can or cannot drive But today, I see so many different shades As many as the hues of green in the Everglades Even the whiteness of white is discerned by its Kelvin rating Much more than before, it has become confusing yet fascinating

SMiLes Dear Rue WHerever i See Binary
ThinKing it Reminds me of the Fall of
me Such A Perfectionist THere
Could Be No Mistakes
Yet of Course That
Was Only To Relieve
Deep Seated Human
Fears and General Anxiety
About my Faith And Trust in
My Place of Life Ever Since RiSinG Dancing
Free Out of the Fear And Coming Into A ‘Garden
Of Eden’ So Lush And Colorful No Longer Black and

This iS How i CoMe NoW to
Love God As All that is my FRiEnD…
Dualistic Thinking So Far From Autotelic
FLoW iN Coloring Life Meditating Contemplating
Mystically As True it Seems i May Be in Good Company
With Those Mystics oF Old With Similar Newer Older Philosophies too…
From The Gospel of Thomas Focusing on SeeKinG Finding Within Saying 2:
“(2) Jesus said: He who seeks, let him not cease seeking until he finds; and
when he finds he will be troubled, and when he is troubled he will be amazed,
and he will reign over the All.”
It’s More Like Understanding
We aRe ALL THe All
With No
Dualistic
Binary

iN Separation my
FRiEnD Yes Naked, Enough,
Whole Complete Inhaling Peace
Exhaling LoVE iN Joy For All With
LEasT HarM Giving Sharing Caring Freely
For All That Is We Continue to See More of God
Honestly, i Believe it’s What Most of Us Are Born to Do
Yet True When God Is Separated in So Many Pieces it
May Be Difficult
To Find Our
Place
of Inhaling
Peace Exhaling LoVE iN Joy Yes
One Body One Blood One Lord Of All

For this As ‘Mary Magdalene’ Was
No Where to Be Found Breaking
Bread And Wine in

And Celebration
of Loving Spirit For All This Way
Yet i Distinctly Remember Seeing Her
Spirit Still in A Dance And An Email
Address of a Forever Best FRiEnD Worth Keeping…
Other than That in the Gospel of Thomas Through
The Ignorance of the Disciples By That Story Jesus had to tell
The Others He Would Change Her into A Man to Be Worthy of Heaven….
114) Simon Peter said to Him, “Let Mary leave us, for women are
not worthy of Life.”
Jesus said, “I myself shall lead her in order to make her
male, so that she too may become a living spirit resembling you
males. For every woman who will make herself male will enter the
Kingdom of Heaven.”
So Many Years of Binary Lines So Many Colors of ReViSioN Still
Needed my FRiEnD…
STiLL To Come
Yes Inhaling Peace
Exhaling LoVE iN Joy
For All No Exclusions
In Real Unconditional Love Now
And True With No ‘Time’ to Wait
At All Just Eternally Now Love For All..:)
