Dear World

Now I have but one choice to make - to leave the subject of Pain for the freedom to foray into the creative Unknown, or not to leave.

I know my choice. 'Freedom' is a conscientiously chosen word. Released from the gravity of Pain is a kind of liberation, a disillusionment at once overt and subtle, onto a latitude altogether exciting and beautiful. Rather than purposeless suspension, subjects of the heart - subjects of real love, faith, kindness, courage, strength - can provide common ground for exploring universal philosophies. And I say 'universal' with great humility, because I am neither superior nor inferior to the human race, and not very specially apart from it.
