Bondage

We are slaves and prostitutes rescued and adopted by the king.

Yet we stand at the window of the palace hearing our old masters and pimps calling to us and we tend to remember that darkness with unwarranted favor.

It is more pleasant in our memory than it was in reality, and we are drawn back to it.

Such is the depth both of our depravity and our deception, that after being rescued from inescapable bondage we would again subject ourselves to it.


We remember the fish we ate in Egypt that cost nothing, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic. - Numbers 11:5
