Forbidden Love was the seventh track on the Confessions DVD.
I had concluded that the universe allowed us to create whatever reality, faith, or path to enlightenment we choose. I believe that we are given the free will to experience our version of God. Some people prefer Jesus. Some people like Buddha. Some people choose Allah, while some people choose Atheism, and so on. Some people experience God and create loving, caring, nurturing realities, while others experience God and make a destructive, oppressive, angry, fear-based reality. It comes down to each individual and the intention within their soul, not so much their God, religion, or faith.
The same can be said for politics.
We all are co-creators in life, and because of that fact, we all have the potential to create as many different versions of God as there are people on the planet. Out of the billions of people living on this earth, there’s the potential to create billions of different versions or variations of God. Everything I’ve experienced and summed up in this story would be just one conclusion as to what God is or could be. The same goes for the two guys standing in the middle of the street yelling Bible verses, and the same goes for the lesbians riding their motorcycles. We’re all experiencing God on very different levels, in many different ways, all at the same time, collectively.
Mother Teresa had her version of God. Hitler had his version of God. Gandhi had his version, as well as did Martin Luther King. George Bush had his version of God. Osama Bin Laden had his version. The Christians of today, as varied as they are in their belief in Christ, had many versions of God. The same goes for the Jews, Buddhists, Native Americans, and so on down the line. And it always seems to fall apart at the very moment when one version of God attempts to project itself onto a different version of God, especially when certain Christians, Jews, or Muslims get involved. That’s when the battle begins. If you stop and think about it, God, or the concept of God, is too big to fit into anyone’s religion, but that doesn’t stop people from trying.
“Forbidden love, Are we supposed to be together, Forbidden love”
Once I finally arrived at my destination, I parked my car, walked down the path into the woods, found a place to spread out my blanket, and began listening to a new CD. As I lay on my blanket, with no one around, listening to my CD, I felt in complete harmony with everything around me. The clouds, the sun, the trees, the grass, my body, the breeze, everything around me seemed to be one. It felt very peaceful. After I had been there for a few minutes, a dragonfly landed softly on my right foot.
It scared me at first, but once I realized what it was, I knew it was there to deliver a message. When I got home that evening, I looked up the meaning of dragonfly. Dragonfly’s wisdom includes Mastery of life on the wing, Understanding dreams, Breaking down illusions, and seeing the truth in a situation.
At that point, I knew I was correct in my thinking.

FORBIDDEN LOVE
Just one kiss on my lips
Was all it took to seal the future
Just one look from your eyes
Was like a certain kind of torture
Once upon a time
There was a boy
There was a girl
Just one touch from your hands
Was all it took to make me falter
[Chorus]
Forbidden love
Are we supposed to be together
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
We seal the destiny forever
Forbidden love
Forbidden love
Just one smile on your face
Was all it took to change my fortune
Just one word from your mouth
Was all I needed to be certain
Once upon a time
There was a boy
There was a girl
Hearts that intertwine
They lived in a different kind of world
[Chorus]
Just one kiss
Just one touch
Just one look
[Chorus X2]
Just one kiss
Just one touch
Just one look
Just one love
