The Love Scrolls: CasanovaIt’s not what you think. You may have heard Casanova’s legend, but have you heard his heart? Could you read between the lines of the playwright who wrote the play Casanova and why he assumes that role of his character given the power of Cupid’s bow and arrow? But he is just like you and I. After all, we all use the power of the bow and arrow in some form, whether through beauty, power, or wit. And we use that power to some extent to shapes love’s stage. Admittedly, some are better than others.
And of course, our intentions are good. Well, at least we try most of the time. But unfortunately there are desires and motivations which we know not of, and nor do we know where they are from. In fact, we just don’t know ourselves. If you were given all the power of the bow and arrow, how would you act? Is there any guarantee that your aim would be any better than the blind whims of Cupid? Especially in a world where love loves to hide, mask itself in indifference and most of all, act.
We will quickly learn that the real story is what is happening behind the stage, under the stage, in the earth deep below the stage, over the stage, behind the pen, inside the heart, in the heavens, and in that place so distant and so far back—a place called home. This is a story dictated by characters with no roles, stars with no spoken parts, no cameos, and no love shared at all. Something happened that moved Casanova’s heart. It moved the characters on the stage, and it is about to move the heavens.
It seems today that the earth is shaking and the ground is moving, and it is getting more frequent. You had better check your foundations like Casanova did. If our house is unsteady, perhaps we might want to check here, and it might just heal the world. |
