&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Some folklore associates the blackberry with bad omens.  European stories have claimed they are death fruits with ties to Wicca.  They can also symbolize sorrow.  In an old proverb they signify haste.  A man is so excited to pick the berries that he jumps into the bush and the thorns cause him to lose his eyesight.  He regains it, however, upon jumping back out of the bush.  Greek mythology contains a legend similar to this.  When Bellerophon, a mortal, tries to ride Pegasus to Olympus, he falls and becomes blind and injured upon landing in a thorny bush.  This is his punishment for trying to take the power of the gods.  Therefore, the fruit also symbolizes arrogance.&amp;#8217;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/33028515607</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/33028515607</guid><pubDate>Sat, 06 Oct 2012 16:19:20 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mb44eiyX6k1qcphvmo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32517723748</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32517723748</guid><pubDate>Sat, 29 Sep 2012 09:06:17 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mb43ythlBh1qcphvmo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32517386171</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32517386171</guid><pubDate>Sat, 29 Sep 2012 08:56:53 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I finally have a job, hoorah</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I finally have a job, hoorah&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32085068318</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/32085068318</guid><pubDate>Sat, 22 Sep 2012 20:10:55 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mafzimhrgi1qcphvmo1_400.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/31652808588</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/31652808588</guid><pubDate>Sun, 16 Sep 2012 08:18:22 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Nimrod</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Nimrod&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/30540822481</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/30540822481</guid><pubDate>Thu, 30 Aug 2012 17:18:09 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Ok, this is about your post titled falling.

As of late, I have focused on my outer image and the contrast to my inner-sanctum, focusing mainly on the contrasts between light and dark, life and death, and what it truly means to be human. I&amp;#8217;ve spread this fascination throughout religion, and have buried my head in books pertaining to this sector; often coming to deeper understandings of characters, rather than with myself.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;Judas Iscariot, for example. As much as society (and &amp;#8216;God&amp;#8217;s word&amp;#8217;) has focused on Judas as being nothing more than the greatest sinner of all, i&amp;#8217;ve come to see him in a  far different light as of late. What if Judas was not a traitor? what if he did not bend to the sins of greed and treachery, but rather, gave Jesus&amp;#8217; life for a greater purpose? Maybe he understood the false hope that Jesus was giving those around him, he understood the corruption that was evident in someone with that much power over Human emotion (or perceived Jesus as nothing more than a babbling fool)? Judas himself has been hated by the church for all eternity, but he himself was a real person, as Jesus was, and he shared the emotions we all share.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;He may have needed the silver, starving following a man who he saw offer no payment for their loyalty than promise of a land above the clouds. He may have understood the plight of the deluded, and wanted no more people to live such a life of ongoing terror of a benevolent force, with the ability to slay anyone who stood against him.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;Judas was a man, just like us, who was pushed to kill himself by those who worshipped a prophet, at a time when prophets were more plentiful than Locusts.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;And then, It seems like there is a piece of Judas within all of us. The biological patterns that occur in our brain, forcing us to flee a situation when we can come out of it better, to betray those who we once trusted in the name of self preservation, and to break down those who &amp;#8216;&lt;strong&gt;trespass against us&amp;#8217;&lt;/strong&gt;. Original sin is evident in all of us, as we are nothing more than the beasts of Eden, rather than those &amp;#8216;&lt;strong&gt;created in the image of God.&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;#8217;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/29156084763</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/29156084763</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 Aug 2012 19:47:17 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Photo</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8k3kpzc701qcphvmo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description><link>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/29143443959</link><guid>http://malformities.tumblr.com/post/29143443959</guid><pubDate>Fri, 10 Aug 2012 16:29:13 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
