Dare to Take Root
()
About this ebook
These short and pertinent writings are really an invitation to reason, relate, maybe debate but certainly at the core of it all an invitation to love.
Not the Hippie love, not the Hollywood love, not the love that we were brought up to believe, but rather the love we lack. That is the main thread in this tapestry of
reflected realities.
Jean-Jacques de Chazal
Born on the island of Mauritius and settled in South Africa since 1979. Jean-Jacques de Chazal makes a living by day managing a medicinal plants endeavour, and writes by night.

*************************
Too many times men
Build temples around
Observations and speculations
Displaying poor understanding
Unto the altar of exclusivity
And superiority
As astounding as this foolishness may be
It seems to be a habit inherent to human nature.
The natural man therefore
Is in desperate need to understand that Humility is lacking within his make up
As he entertains his arrogance
Upon which stands his marvel
At the works of his intellectual hands.
Yet all the while, the evidence
Of his incapacity to be a worthy steward
Of the creation he separated himself from Continually stares into his closed eyes.
Indeed the created need to draw near to the creator
And the natural man should seek and invite the holy
Into his deepest heart and then experientially observe
The natural man give way to the spiritual man.
********************
As the many stars
Pierce the midnight sky
So are there many thoughts
Breaths, births and deaths.
