#seclude

And they were BFs...... I think I’m gonna draw them together more often, they’re a lot of fun!

Here was the original pic for Cleo :> ft. a doodle of dream

Seclude had seen a couple on the shore kiss and went “hey that’s a sign of affection isn’t it?” and just went right up to Cleo with it. 

I don’t know why G_d keeps wanting me to post this before this Friday. These were my reflections on Shabbat of 6.29.19 when I was contemplating the Shabbat laws that were just too seemingly offensive to the young Jewish soul, having been drenched in Catholicism her whole life...

Evil vs. Good

Good: Brings light to the dark, separates dark from light, and calls it good.

Evil: Brings dark to the light, separates light from dark, and calls it bad.

Shabbat: Not about not making things. -Even though G_d saw all of His inventions as good, even He too needed a break from so much good and secluded to where He began- nothingness. --The world is too good, that we need to take a break from it and seclude to the beginning of Creation as well; remove ourselves from the distractions, and reconnect to where we all came from. -->G_d created light out of darkness. We were created with and from light/on Shabbat. We must enter back into the good darkness and reconnect ourselves in and with light to rebuild confidence in ourselves so that we can start a new week with that refound confidence and feeling of safety/securedness. -->*And to do this, we need to stop making things. *I initially thought the word I wanted to use was “reclude”, but G_d gave me a better word with Merriam-Webster: 

Definition of seclude: transitive verb

א. Obsolete: To exclude from a privilege, rank, or dignity; DEBAR

ב. To remove or separate from intercourse or outside influence; ISOLATE

ג. SHUT OFF, SCREEN

This was all onset by deciding to drop everything in my current “Shabbat practice” after the 6th point in the Mishnah Shabbat Chapter 2 registering in my head as I was reading it out loud. Initially, I was all, “What the heck kind of bad omen is this?!” and then decided to drop everything until I figured out every single Shabbat law, so as to save my soul/life.
