“T
his is no fucking coincidence,” she convinced herself. “This has to be what Scott was looking for, this has to be it.” Then she stopped and realized that this email was probably meant for the person who murdered her aunt. She quickly opened the previous email looking for more clues. Her phone rang. She looked at the incoming number and didn’t answer it. Her inbox was starting to fill but she didn’t answer any of them. She was too engrossed to care as she read another spiritually bullshit filled email:

go forth my friend

These
are
true
blessings
to
hold
close
to
the
heart.
It
is
not
for
the
sake
of
argument
but
for
the
prosperity
of
his
will.
One
must
abandon
this
creed
in
order
to
alleviate
one’s
feelings
of
lust
and
desires.
The
shadows
of
evening
are
upon
us
all,
we
must
look
towards
his
son
for
light
and
inspiration.
The
eternal
flames
at
the
gates
of
hell
will
penetrate
the
souls
of
the
condemned.
Them,
him
or
her
cannot
pronounce
your
acts
of
violence
or
disgrace,
they
are
your
acts,
and
yours
alone.
You
are
welcomed
home
only
when
the
wanting
stops
and
realizing
the
existence
of
him
is
enough
fulfillment.
Always
in
the
after,
always
in
the
before,
and
always
will
it
ever
be.
It
is
the
eleventh
hour
for
which
the
soul
will
falter
if
it
is
not
true.
One
must
genuflect
before
the
hand
of
the
almighty
in
order
to
forgive
the
sins
of
the
past.
Knowledge
from
all
twelve
apostles
shall
shed
light
upon
a
darkened
soul
so
go
onward
and
spread
their
words.

She read every third word and it made no sense whatsoever. She looked for the word “grace” and found none. The only thing close was the word “son” and nothing else. This email was a dead end, nothing jumped out at her so she moved onto the next one.

to each their own

The
target
of
acceptance
to
his
kingdom
comes
from
acts
of
kindness
and
love
without
predetermine
actions.
The
grace
of
thy
holy
benefits
only
those
who
shall
follow
in
his
footsteps.
The
care
for
all
his
creations
shall
nurture
the
fruits
of
its
tree
with
deep
roots
of
strength.
The
sun
will
always
shine
upon
those
who
believe
and
clouds
will
follow
for
those
who
don’t.
The
senator
or
congressman
do
not
make
his
law
or
shall
reign
in
his
spirit.
Nor
wife
nor
husband
shall
dictate
false
meanings
of
love
to
their
children.
The
time
will
come
for
justification
and
redemption
but
for
he
who
loves
only
thyself
will
be
turned
away
to
follow
the
dark
angles.
Go
to
the
pulpit
and
listen
with
open
heart,
speak
of
open
heart,
and
bask
in
his
glory.
For
be
the
one
who
proclaims
his
word,
his
love,
and
you
will
be
rewarded.
You
determine
the
true
path
by
following
the
true
feelings
within
thyself
and
repent
from
all
evil.
In
order
to
forgive
one
must
learn
from
past
mistakes
and
understand
their
meanings
within
the
soul.
To
shoot
an
arrow
and
penetrate
thy
enemy’s
heart
is
very
much
like
speaking
with
a
forked
tongue
and
damning
thy
neighbor.
The
quality
of
life
upon
the
earth
is
not
just
cause
for
the
quality
of
life
forever
in
his
kingdom.
The
pictures
within
one’s
mind
are
enough
to
deny
entry
into
this
everlasting
peace
so
rid
the
evil
through
the
baptism
of
forsaken
thoughts.
Those
of
little
faith
will
have
a
chance
at
salivation
only
if
their
hearts
are
pure.
His
subjects
cannot
be
condemned
without
his
final
word
and
shall
face
him
on
judgment
day.
