My own shame? Concerned forbidden fruit.



Backstory

Be aware; the tongue, the eyes; the stars; the children born on Earth. The individual. The distinct.

Why would Adam have been cast out of Paradise?

What's next, extinct? Instinct?
Where's my pen?

The backstory is what makes this! Forbidden fruit...reminds me of "It was not that Adam ate the apple for the apple's sake, but because it was forbidden." If not for knowing it was forbidden, there would be no guilt or shame. Why else would Adam be hiding behind the fig leaves. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
