It was a classic timeless tale.
She was - The GODdess. A woman of unsurpassed beauty, with a dominating personality, and a fascinatingly creative mind. A woman who loved luxury - and who knew whose job it was to provide Her with all that She might want.
Men sought Her attention like the powerfully addictive drug that it was - always wanting and craving more. Those who fell under Her spell were willing and eager to give of their time and effort and money in any amount required to satisfy Her insatiable demands and their own desperate need. And the amount required? Perhaps not so much at first. But as each man's addiction grew, She demanded more and more, until each man was so fully used that he had nothing more to give.
He was - a student. Young, handsome, and intelligent. He had heard rumors about Her Perfect Self, but had never seen Her in person - until that fateful day. He was intrigued by what he'd heard, and with the foolhardiness of youth, thought that he would not succumb the way so many had before him. He thought that he would be too strong to become enslaved by the powers of Her beauty and Her mind. He was wrong.
When he presented himself to Her that afternoon, Her penetrating gaze immediately brought him to his knees. He held up to Her his offering - a silver platter, and on the platter a tribute that represented all that he had earned during the previous two weeks. She smiled, and told him She was pleased, but then with a sweep of Her hand She motioned to the surrounding evidence of other gifts and tributes She had recently received - in each case much more generous
than what he had been able to bring.
And then, to his surprise - She spoke to him with words of warning. She told him that it would please Her to have him give himself to Her, but that he should know that if he were to leave that day and then return even one more time, he would (as so many had before him) become Her eternal slave - Her property - and that his life would become a life spent in full devotion to one goal and one goal only - serving Her Perfect Self.
Of course - he did return. With a more generous offering this time -
one that took him a full two months to earn.
He really had no choice - Her powers were that strong. And from then on, he lived as Hers - always giving all that he had to Her. It was, through many years and through many life adventures, a life quite different from what he had once imagined his would be - but a life that fulfilled his desire - and his destiny.
