David and Lucious R D Jackson 1. izdevums

David and Lucious is a tale of Man and a Dog. David embarks on a sojourn like many before him. Lucious remains by his friend?s side no matter the circumstances or situation. The unconditional relationship grows to a level most can not comprehend. The two transcend to an awareness that has been known to be indescribable. The illusions all fell down instantly. In one epiphanous moment David realized that love was empty. He accepted that love was not a feeling or an emotion. It came to him that love was not a thing to behold. In one spinning moment he knew his search for love (which the mass consciousness says is real) was a fallacy, a shadow. He knew that he could be sucked into the emptiness of the hollow world around him. Now he realized he was in the deepest well, the darkest place that he avoided for so many years. The place where many willingly leapt after standing in line patiently. Where the masses listen to the soft call of the biggest illusion of all. The wail of love. David sat on the floor while Lucious gently curled himself into David?s lap. Lucious licked his friend?s chin and communicated, ?A dog?s life is simple, there are no illusions, just constant four legged reality. Owners get lost more often than we do!? Lucious tasted the saltiness of David?s tears and stopped licking. On their path the two encountered mundane experiences that solidify their unique relationship with the community, society and macrocosm. Several memorable characters enhance the lessons learned, while supplying attention to the ironies that surround us all. David soon awakens and sees his potential to extend his knowing to the community. Lucious hones his skills to assist his best friend. This story answers many questions yet offers more opportunity to pose more inquiry into the edict; Know Thyself?
