The Loving Idea

As he arose from the whirlwind of ash, he wondered what it was that

 

had actually happened. The last thing he remembered was that he had

 

fallen off the edge of the frail olive branch, everything covered in

 

flames. As he came plumeting down, he was corraled out of the air by a

 

dove. This dove, with her lush, white feathers glistening above the fire

 

that had engulfed the land, had brought him to her olive branch, but

 

much like his own olive branch, hers too began to split, and combust. It

 

was as though everything that he touched died. He despised it. The

 

dove comforted him, telling him, that they merely havn't found their

 

olive branch. "It's not necessary to be born into the olive branch to

 

which you belong." said she. so they searched on and on. To this day,

 

they search. He had found half of himself, the day the dove came from

 

above, but alas, he has yet to find the other half. For she is Immortal

 

Dove, and he only a mere idea, however every idea may perhaps have

 

the potential to become immortal, depending entirely upon what it is

 

nurtured with, and the perspective behind it.
