master rishi's post caused me to think, and think hard, about whom i serve and why, and being able to express it plainly

while i have a lot of 'friends' that i call on occasionally, i do not 'serve' them per se, nor do i stick with just one - i have my life's mission as we all do, and i have given my allegiance to a base concept that i feel is at the heart of all our creation (kneeling, sword in hand with the hilt ready for their grasping, but they just smiled and touched the hilt with their fingers indicating that they accepted my service but that i was bonded to another as yet unknown to me), but as for a particular deity or entity, no, i do not serve so

i have asked and looked for many, many years, and some have tried to claim me, but it is always proven quickly that they don't, usually by time and circumstance, so i thought chronos at one time, but that was proven false as well, so i made up my own deity that embodied the many-faceted and outside-of-time concepts of the energy involved, the true 'unknown god' (or goddess)

perhaps i will return to my one true love when i die for the last time

so whom do you serve (are bonded to) and why?

Seems I am bound a bit to Enki, but it's weird as of reasons...

It just...seemed to fit. I drew character parallels. He's intellectual, I am as well. He likes to build/create/implement, so do I. In fact, I was infatuated with Steel Tech™ and Erector™ sets, not to mention Lego™ until I was the ripe age of 16. Whenever I built, sometimes I would stop almost 70% of the way to completion, just because an epiphany of more efficient structure design would dawn onto me. In one day, I would have a project evolve up to 8 times before I called it a masterpiece of work.

I like juryrigging things if I think it can work, my childhood hero was MacGyver, and lo and behold, who is a hallmark of ingenuity that I behold with my experience? Enki. *shrug*

It's like we ran together with alot of things, so I just have a REALLY close association with him. Some things, though, are my own, so thats why I keep it at me being a "subordinative associate," I do jobs for him or whatever, dreamscape missions, plans, rituals, feasts of honor...heck, even theorums to bring knowledge back to the people by means of drawing parallels to magick, science, and making a bridge between the two!

Service? I would serve the Tao, or to the Aramaic proto-christians, Abwoon.
