The love within - Purgatory XXIV

When Poetry Gets a Divine Upgrade! ✍️🎭

Ready for the ultimate literary masterclass? Dante just dropped the most famous definition of his "dolce stil novo" in medieval history! 📚 When Bonagiunta da Lucca asks about his revolutionary poetry style, Dante basically says "I just write what Love tells me to write"—talk about having the ultimate ghostwriter! It's like having a divine muse on speed dial while other poets are still stuck with writer's block!

But wait, there's more! Our spiritual fitness journey continues as an angel erases another P from Dante's forehead—that's six sins down, one to go! 😇 Meanwhile, the gang encounters the Tree of Knowledge serving up examples of perfect temperance, including Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding of Cana. Proof that even divine intervention believes in upgrading your beverage game when the occasion calls for it! 🍷

The real plot twist? This tree isn't here to tempt anyone—it's basically a cosmic TED talk on moderation! From Romans who were perfectly happy with H2O to Christ blessing a wedding feast, the message is clear: it's not about what you consume, it's about finding that sweet spot of balance. Medieval mindfulness coming through with timeless wisdom about knowing when enough is enough! 💧✨
