Am i?

rubs her head and hugs her
JADA
Wait did really cause you to existance
SENECA
You made us out of your shadow to establish a world without evil and because of those principles it has lead to your own devastation just as you as your prinis of a soldier I mys was you and neive to believe what mad men would spite me up to fight for later I learned they where all the same men whogain the succes of others I suppose that how I learn to gain my own peer but at that cost I learned a new lesson on why its is a cost to fight for something youbelive and what it alienates you from any form of other truths… So I say this to pass it on to you of the consequences at state though you truths may be possible they come at princle and oppsite princlpe that defects them…My child there comes consequences when you hold on to a certain set of principles when you let them guide you through the world. Not only are you stubborn to one thing only you are blind of all the other realites that contain true knowledge… but your own and there by you are feeble to the realization of the world before because there is no correct truth in the matter of existance only the forms of it which you make to believe on The fact that you foolowed thst type of belief system and reliad on it is what lead you to unhappiness
JADA PLANTING FLOWER

I know that but hes been making fdun of my louf screams
SENECA
MmmI don’t know its just I fell like I have so many problem
putting hand on top of her head
SENECA (CONT’D)
especially when I get angry
smiles
SENECA (CONT’D)
I used to have problem like that inculindg another that was differen little did I know it soon became one of the greatest gifts I had that I didn’t understand till later. Because it had a lot to teach me about myself and what I knew I needed to learn from it and how it shaped me
JADA
About being angry?
SENECA
YES
Paints mural
JADA
That’s pretty!
SENECA WIPES IT
JADA (CONT’D)
Ah! You destroyed it !
SENECA
That the point…the Beauty it was is as important to its destruction. A sign yhat even things that broken are still meaningful and complete
plants seed
SENECA (CONT’D)
it was pray that’s why I made it so it could grow peacefully. The point is you would want reality to treat you with much as respect as you want it to treat you. And as you would treat it.JADA
I heard you where different when your brother died but when he died you didn’t cry.
SENECA
Why?
JADA
Why not be sad when someone has left you that just cruel to not feel anything By all means I believe love one wouldnt want you to cry
SENENCA
When my brother who thankfully im grattfide hes still alive, but when he died I didn’t cry because I new that I shouldn’t be unhappy but happy for him in his jounery Instead of being selfish
JADA
HOW IS CRYING FOR SOME OEN BEING SELFSH
SENECA
felling that way because I want them to badly stay because feel abodne isnt right they have the right o go withthere jounry..i was because I felt was left behind, I didn’t cry not to be rude.. I just thought he'd be happeir with his own freedom…
daiffidaill
even if it lead to now where.
JADA
What do you believe in daddy?
SENECA
My belief stands that everything has an equal opposing opposite to it. So that even those was a loss there was something good that should have been addressed like his freedom
JADA
TELL ME MORE
SENECA
Like how everything has an equal opposing oppsite to it. You say the say the same for psychological damge are equal to there genuis behind them and even an amout of good is equal to the amount evil it can provide. just because a person is noble doesn’t mean they wont turn to a devil as deep and dark to the amount of their goodness-
JADA
So you don’t believe anything
SENECA
I believ in over five thousnad gods but I don’t erve them just so I can amount to something. I listne and understand what they can teach.
JADA
THAT LOT A LEGION… WHAT ABOUT ANGEL
SENECA
You like angels….

SENECA (CONT’D)
some beautiful things happen out of accident
JADA
What if they did all the time?
SENECA
Hmm?
JADA
Everything made by an accident?
SENECA
Then the idea is more precious…
These pillars where made by forest who came and saw the tragdey of the war in the lands they decided planet them to alvcveit the pain of the war.. Iyt shows you that there all not bad… They all dieed and mysteryoly the flowers stayed and kept ther memoriey alive.. I think some things are made out of accidnet some thring maybe when the person was imaging a flower gareden around some used spikes.. Jada: But most of all what was defined behind had a perpose our existenece prsendes essenece on to the world
JADA
Mmm so are all things made of an accident and purpose?
