You, Me and Him

Perfect relationships

It's

Love in

Perfection.

You, Me And HIM

Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam.

Author's Note

an experimentation with symbolic layout.
The Divine love triangle. Thanks, Utkarsh, for all the help with the final format!

A perfect relationship happens when two mortals who love each other also love God who loves them back. Their love for God is reflected in the way they treat each other with love and respect and likewise, God is blessing the union. In the West, a love triangle connotes negativity - that there is a third person involved in a couple's relationship such that a perfect relationship is ruined because of the third party. I wanted to show that the emphasis of a relationship being between just two mortals will be difficult unless they have God in the relationship in as few words as possible in this work. Ad majorem Dei gloriam is Latin for "All for God's greater glory".

I guess it is limited by those who understand the symbolism and Latin. I just wanted to play with the concept of something visual like the shape of the triangle being part of the poem's context without actually mentioning the love triangle as would be initially inferred in the title (again, done to mislead and therefore, create a twist.) This is a Divine love triangle - union of two mortals blessed by God.

I do understood well what you have in mind . God instituted marriage between a man and a woman and He is the witness when the union and bond is sealed and and vows are made . There is also asymbolic tying and twisting of a three prong knot or chord symbolizing a new husband and wife and Christ . A marriage is most likely to thrive and survive when God is involved . It's really a love triangle with both couple working and reaching out to God for close and intimate fellowship and relationship . They too are going and drawing more closer to each other . The more closer they get to know God the more closer they become to one another and stronger their marriage . And God will surely hold and preserve them together . And with these kind it love and commitment . There's such thing we marriage in heaven when God is in their midst .

I really feel that without the blessings of the almighty no relationship would be successful. So involving him is necessary.

[Rachelle]

But many don't get it…. hence, this work… Actually was inspired by another writer who was complaining about her relationship/s through her work…. Too much on the carnal and no sign of the spiritual… I just wanted her to see this so she would stop searching in the wrong places, stop hurting and heal herself.

What would be better is creating a triangle completely out of words.

I did it on photoshop but WC has problems uploading something from OSX..

[William Wapi]

Well, Rachelle, technically you have not created the shape of a triangle with your poem. In some way you have actually cheated :) Why do I say so? Check:

[Rachelle]

:D It is not equilateral….

[William Wapi]

Yeah I know but it is still a triangle :D Anyway, my point is try creating a triangle out of words alone without having dots finish up for ya.

I did it with Photoshop but the photo won't upload...
