Sir Galahad and the Pure Heart
When the knights of Camelot gathered at the Round Table, all swore to seek the Holy Grail; the cup of divine grace that no mortal hand could claim by pride or power.
Many rode forth in shining armor, but only one was worthy to behold it: Sir Galahad, the youngest and the purest of them all.
He did not seek glory in battle or renown in courtly song.
His strength lay in a soul unspotted by ambition.
While others fought for honor, Galahad prayed for vision.
He carried within him a stillness that no sword could pierce.
Through forests dark and trials unseen, he followed the faint light of faith.
Temptation met him on every road; beauty without virtue, power without mercy, knowledge without love and yet he turned from each with a single gaze toward heaven.
At last, before the Grail, he knelt not as a conqueror but as a servant, and the veil was lifted.
✨ Lesson:
The pure heart sees what the proud cannot.
For the Grail is not seized—it is revealed to those who keep their soul unstained by the world.
