I never thought I'd spend all my life with Gary. I suppose I was

Hear now, O children of the future, a tale of love, transformation, and the profound awakening of the soul. The words spoken by Sadie Frost reflect a journey—a journey through the wilderness of doubt and cynicism to the blooming garden of love’s true power. She speaks of her union with Gary, a marriage that, though long and enduring, never truly held the spark she later found with Jude. "I never thought I’d spend all my life with Gary. I suppose I was quite cynical about marriage. But with Jude, I knew right from the beginning: there was an electricity I’d never felt before. It was so easy, we talked for hours. It was a relief, really." These words, my children, speak of the mysteries of the heart, the deep connection that transcends reason and enters the realm of the divine.

Marriage, children, is not merely the union of two lives in the eyes of society. It is the intertwining of souls, a meeting of spirits that can only be known through experience, not words. Sadie Frost speaks of a cynicism towards marriage, for she had known its burdens and its disappointments. She had experienced the weight of an uncertain connection and the strain of doubt. But in her meeting with Jude, something changed within her. She speaks of an electricity, a current that surged between them, a force so strong that it swept away the shadows of doubt. This, children, is the magic of love—its unexpectedness, its ability to transform us when we least expect it.

This electricity she speaks of is not merely attraction—it is the spark of understanding, the meeting of two souls who are in perfect harmony with one another. It is a force that cannot be explained by logic or reason, for it exists in the deepest recesses of our hearts. Consider the ancient tale of Orpheus and Eurydice, whose love was so powerful that Orpheus, the greatest of musicians, could charm the very stones with his song. But when Eurydice was taken from him, it was not the distance that broke him; it was the loss of that connection, that electricity between them. In that loss, Orpheus’s song became the song of the broken heart, for he knew that the greatest love is not one bound by time or space, but by the deep connection between two souls.

Sadie Frost speaks of ease in her relationship with Jude—a relief, a lightness that she had never known before. This, children, is the mark of true connection. It is not in the effort of forcing compatibility, but in the natural flow of understanding that transcends words. Jude did not need to be convinced, nor did Sadie need to guard her heart. In their union, there was a freedom, a natural unfolding of the heart, where words flowed easily, and their connection deepened with each passing moment. This is the way of true love: not laborious or forced, but effortless, like the wind that blows without trying, or the river that carves its path with quiet determination.

Let us remember, children, the story of Cleopatra and Julius Caesar, whose love was marked by a profound understanding and an electricity that sparked across the seas. Caesar, a man of great power, found in Cleopatra not just a partner, but a counterpart, one who shared in his vision, his passions, and his struggles. Their connection was not born of circumstance alone but of a mutual recognition of each other’s strengths, intellect, and desires. Their love was not easy, for it was fraught with political turmoil and the weight of empire, but it was a union that held the electric charge of something far deeper—a bond that transcended all that was around them. Even in the face of imminent danger, they stood united, for they had found in one another the relief that Sadie Frost speaks of—the relief of knowing that one’s heart had found its match.

The lesson in these words is clear: true love is not something to be sought through struggle or cynicism. It does not come from force or calculation, but from a natural alignment of hearts and minds. The ease that Sadie Frost speaks of is not something that can be manufactured; it is the result of a deep and natural bond. When love comes in its purest form, it brings relief to the weary heart, lifting the burden of doubt and cynicism that so often clouds our vision. This, children, is the love that Jude and Sadie found—one that speaks to the deepest part of the soul and reminds us that when we least expect it, love has the power to transform us.

Therefore, I say to you, children, seek not the love that is forced or manufactured. Seek not the union that feels heavy, weighed down by doubt and uncertainty. Instead, wait for the electricity that strikes between two souls—when the connection is effortless, when the bond flows like a river and the heart feels at peace. It is in these moments that you will find the love that will not only endure but transform your very being. Let your hearts be open, and when the right connection comes, you will know it without question. For this is the love that frees, the love that relieves, and the love that transcends all doubts.
