Maybe this isn't what God intended for us, seeking others to be coupled with, huddled together in the darkness looking for a light, for anything we can use. Just searching for warmth in each other, searching for a way out of this tormented state. Maybe orginal sin and all of the things that have followed it built up. Maybe we're responsible for the sins of our ancestors, the rape of cultures, the crucifixion of Jesus, all of the countless wars, betrayls and wrong doings. The lies that could probably stretch throughout or own history more than once; maybe all of these things are as much our own as they are those of the people that perpatrated them.
Maybe because of this our souls are imnperfect, I have to ask the question again, "Were we engineered like this, with some kind of hole in our souls to keep us longing for a closeness that can never be achieved here in life?". Centuries of sin stacked up and burrowed through the center of our hearts. There's a hole in our soul and we didn't even notice it, how could we let this go unchecked? And the end result is that we're going to let it grow wider and deeper...
