I Am Beast! I eat the flesh of PREDATOR. I hurt. The stab wound pains me so. I killed the bad creatures.
I don’t care that I hurt. Ruetoohto people cared for me. I am on my way. Mountains bring battle and pain, but I stronger for it. I dreamed Shepherd’s Crook Man gave me face back and less hair. I said in dream, I like me. Why change. I asked Shepherd Crook Man to change my inside. He smiled in my dream and said ok. I like the Shepherd Crook man dream.
I am always thirsty. Wound makes me that way. Mean monster stabbed me with spear and insides hurt.
I go to La Longi and tell them I forgive. I think it is right that I do. Brother does not need to tell me that. Shepherd Crook Man Tells me to in my dream. I go and do it. People need me to forgive them. I need to be forgived too. I am scary Beast. I am fearsome.
It is Night! I run, but I am happy Beast.

Jeptha is growing wiser.
Ehhhh creepy.
Jeptha Berengar is a little off putting. He was bitten by a creature as a child and hasn’t bee quite right since. It seems his heart is in the right place most of the time.
Ouch!
I double dog dare you to talk to him in the comments. He may reply
NO WAY!
Ha ha! What is scarier? His words or hos looks?
Ehhhhhhhh I don’t know!!!!!
Did you get my email?
I will check.
I did. Try logging out then back in.
Yeah, I know.
🙌 yay!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
Read your Bible pray every day and you’ll grow grow grow!
I am!
Enjoyed your post. Have a Great Day 😀🙏
I am glad Jeptha pulled through his ordeal. How is your day?
Creepy, but good.
Jeptha Berengar is not a very socially acceptable individual to be sure. I think his heart is in the right place, however. We will have to see how the story progresses. Thank you for the feedback, Petra. Did you know that if you speak to one of the characters in the story, there is a chance they will respond?
I didn’t know that, I might try it 😁
It would be amusing to see the interaction between a redheaded cheese thief that frequents the Puking Peasant and the Erratic Engineeress!
I suspect it would be about cheese
I suspect as well. 😜
Jeptha conquer beast!
He does need to conquer himself to grow.
Agreed.
How are you today sir?
Well, Sir! Leaving for work soon.
That is nice to know sire.
I am not trying to embarrass. Sir is appropriate, sire is what you call royalty. I call you sir as a sign of mutual respect, not from an elevated position. I bet it is the difference in how we use the English language. 🤠🔥
Haha. I was just joking. I called you sire because you are the king of the campfire.
I see! Emerson Berengar and I both have Campfires, but he is a story character. In the US, we consider all men are created equal.
Was that a quote by john locke?
Actually, no. Did he say something similar?
Not sure if it was his words, but this idea is said to be propounded in his book ‘two treatises of the government’.
Are we talking about men created equal? Then yes. It is a quote I work to live by.
Yes.
” The wise men sees himself in all beings and all beings in himself. What hatred can be there to that seer?”
From Isa Upanishad.
Your day comes to a close. How is yours?
It has been usual so far. I read some bible. I am 3 days ahead in the plan you added in.
Way Cool! 🤠🔥
I wonder, who is a heathen?
In which context?
In the bible.
A heathen could be defined as someone who does not fear God in his heart in some way.
So we should fear god? How can we both fear and love someone?
I imagine that you love your parents and when you were young you needed some direction. True?
Yes. I think I got it.
Great question!
But then why at many places, hindus are considered heathens?
I cannot speak for others. I define it as someone who does not acknowledge God in thier thoughts and actions. I may think of someone who embraces and encourages immoral behavior as a heathen.
This is my way of deciding;
If someone is not offended by it and in fact embraces the word, they probably are a heathen.
I have come to know many Hindu that devoutly embrace God with the knowledge that they have of him. I say this from my perspective without the desire to offend.
I don’t think any Hindu embraces being called a heathen.
The hindu equivalent of the word heathen would then be naastik. Meaning faithless.
So our thoughts are the same.
Do you have a hindu temple in your city?
I am not sure, but Denver, Colorado has a large population of people from India.
Okay.
I think the term feard God is more along the lines of respect God.
I agree.
That makes sense
Nice to see this turn in the story.
I agree. I wasn’t sure if Jeptha would pull through due to Shepherd’s Crook Man being in another land with his sheep.
I am sorry for putting you in that tight spot.
😅
He did do a great job at helping Arjun though.
I wanted your story to blend! It is all good! A dream worked.
I love Beast. He’s such an awesome character.
I appreciate it. He is hard to write some days. Did you know that if you speak to the Beast in the comments, he may respond?
Dear Beast,
Is this true?
Jeptha Berengar is awoken from sleep. It is day. “Did you follow me from Ruetoohto village? I walk to La Longi. That is true.”
LOL!
Beast!
The Beast hears a sound and turns.
” I NOT SEE YOU LITTLE MAN. YOU SCARED ME.”
Sorry bro. Didn’t mean to scare you.
The Beast stands to his full height.
” Beast is ok. I go to La Longi to forgive.”
Glad to hear it. Have a good one beast.
The Beast looks wistfully.
“BE SAFE LITTLE MAN. I AM BEAST”
I will try!
Jeptha the Beast has a big heart. I bet he enjoyed hanging out with you.
I hope so. I know I had a good time.
