escapril day 22: desire
[ from the doing of first's disobedience to the many that followed within. the original sin paved the way for numerous to follow in it's wake. both visible and hidden. in all its methods and forms. stealing goods, money, food or someone's part of better half. everything arises from a disastrous want. to bow before desire and make yourself vulnerable to tempestuous remarks. ]
