This moment is a lot easier than a lifetime of learning,
eternity can be found therein;
but only for the moment,
a passing phenomenon,
like its counterpart, the experience of sin;
alone with a pleasure without integration,
alone either without or within;
a subject or an object,
a lover or a beloved,
neither one in the end which will win.
Yet just as from the heavens
the rain and snow come down
And do not return there
till they have watered the earth,
making it fertile and fruitful,
Giving seed to the one who sows
and bread to the one who eats,
So shall my word be
that goes forth from my mouth;
It shall not return to me empty,
but shall do what pleases me,
achieving the end for which I sent it
Isaiah 55.

Matthew 13
Birds ate the seed on the path.
Sun scorched the seed on the rocks.
Thorns choked the seed among them.
Fruit was produced by the seed in the rich soil.
