Okay...so it's obvious. I am in love with this
episode...Between The Lines...*BG*
I can't stop thinking about it and I can't stop
trying to see my reflection in it.
I stumbled onto some words that have meaning to
me and reflect what I saw in Xena and Gabrielle.
The one word that says it all for me is:
~~~ONENESS~~~
"The relationship of the individual soul
to the Universal Soul, to God,
is much the same as the oneness
of any energy factor to the source.
You are part
of that encircling and eternal force.
With each incarnation
you shed misunderstandings
that keep you separated from the Oneness.
It is only the confusion
that has divided you
and you are now *finding your way back*."
Xena and Gabrielle *ARE* finding their way back.
This episode showed me that. Having found not
only that Oneness within themselves but within
each other...and the world in which they exist...
they have disgarded *confusion*...and there lies
wisdom and a place of comfort.
"The greatest need in a soul
is to acheive that loving of self
which will bring about the unity
wherein the judgements
that have caused such pain
are eliminated."
Both of our heros are coming to peace
within and at long last accepting themselves...
Loving themselves.
Of course ALL of this is IMHO...*BG*
