Heavenly Gifts

Those two blessings from heaven that most benefit and strengthen us are dealing without our depraved natures and our mortal status.

Free willed beings are neither purely good robots (elves) nor wholly wicked demons (orcs). Instead we are sinful and mostly determined, but we are free enough and decent enough--when we work at it--to rebound against these existential limitations, alive, victorious and triumphant--when we get it right.

Where types are mixed, and both/and is the nature of the being, then free will, morality, love, creative expression, love and moderation all abound and abound.

From whence we come, and from whence we commence, we enjoy a most unique opportunity to excel and make good.
