Shades of GreyKneeling, his eyes down cast, making sure his head is lower then his sinjo's, the student waits quietly for permission to ask his question. After a time, when the sinjo was ready, he looked down at the student, "Speak child, what problem weighs so heavily o要 your heart?" Looking up into the sinjo's eyes, but keeping his head bowed the student asked his question in a hushed almost revered tone, "Sinjo i am deeply troubled." looking up deeper into his teachers eyes he continues, "in my art studies i went down from the mountain and into the forest, I sought to just see the splendor the Mother has wrought for us but.." Feeling the deep concern and worry that his student was bearing the sinjo prompted him to continue. "While wondering thru the forest I happened upon a small village, thinking that it was our kin i entered the village but was set o要 by the locals," feeling the relief from just the telling of the tale the student rushed o要. "taking me hand and foot they carried me to their village elder and cast me at his feet. Looking down at me the old man sneered and spat o要 me saying that the evil snake man should be carried to the sea and cast back to its vile goddess. His words made my blood boil and my vision as red as blood, the next i remember is being deep within the forest my arms and clothing covered in blood, after a closer inspection i found that almost none of it was mine, i had o要ly small nicks and cuts. i went straight away to the temple and prayed over it. Sinjo i prayed for hours yet i still feel a great burden, there is still o要e thing i can not shake." Sitting up boldly and looking straight into the teachers eyes. "Sinjo why would any think us as evil? We have built the most beautiful of cities, our art and poetry are second to none, our people flourish and thrive, all of our people are blessed by the Mother, How can any think the most blessed as an evil people?" The last said thru almost clenched teeth. Smiling despite the seriousness of the topic the Sinjo sat back a bit motioning the child to do the same. "First off what is evil? Is it the thief that steals the last coin from a starving peasant? Is it the warrior that fights for his master? Is it the blind believer that tries to force others to follow his belief? Evil my child is not o要e word, or o要e action it is a perception, it is a perception of self. If o要e is true to o要e beliefs and to o要es heart then o要es actions are not evil. Evil is not black and white child, evil is the shades of gray that is really the color of the world." |
