RE: The apple of knowledge: "Dialogues in Eden"
If I have to assess who is the most wicked in my writing and based on apparent intentions, the serpent seems to take on this role. The serpent is often seen as the embodiment of temptation and evil, the one who cunningly pushes Eve towards the choice that leads to the fall of humanity. Eve, despite making a mistake, reflects on the nature of evil and its impact. Hers is a quest for understanding and overcoming, not for spreading evil. Her action of listening to the serpent and acting against a prohibition could be interpreted as an act of rebellion or misplaced curiosity. Eve also shows an understanding of the complexity of evil and human suffering. She seems to seek a way to understand and overcome the cycle of hatred and envy that the serpent represents. With this story, I wanted to explore the complexity of good and evil, pushing us towards a greater understanding and empathy in our interactions. Thank you @freewritehouse for giving me the opportunity to delve into this difficult existential dialogue.
Thank you for your explaining the meaning of your story. Let's hope she finds what she's looking for and can stop the cycle including blaming snakes for the own desires. 👍

Thanks for your feedback on my story. Your reflection inspired me to delve deeper into the theme of AWARENESS and how, although we are born inclined towards good, external experiences often shape our perception of evil, influencing our actions. This leads me to reflect on how crucial it is to cultivate awareness and empathy to overcome negative influences that distort our innate goodness.
I believe that, through understanding and acceptance, we can break the cycle of malevolence, paving the way for a more harmonious and conscious humanity. The conversation between Eve and the serpent highlights this process of internal evolution, showing that it is possible to overcome the shadows and move towards a light of greater benevolence.
I hope that, together, we can remain optimistic about humanity's ability to evolve beyond its limitations, embracing a more empathetic and conscious vision of our being. Best regards, have a good day.
An optimistic attitude is all we need. All the best to you. Enjoy the weekend.
