Xenobia, if you are beginning to doubt everything you once took for granted, this seems an odd place to start.

One of my favorite movies is "What Dreams May Come". Annie could not bear
to go on without her family and so committed suicide and was lost in her despair.
Chris goes after her and brings her back.
Love is the most powerful force--self-love--the most powerful of all.
When we can find the will to love ourselves in ways that nurture and heal--that is the kind of magick that can cure anything--that is a miracle.

We are all lost to our own belief, to our own truth. If being lost is a waste, then we are all wasting our time.

Alas...it seems as though we humans learn more from adversity--our pain acts as the catalyst that pushes us onward.

My words are sufficient, and I agree with myself that I probably do not even understand your reply. It might just be that in a storm there is more things to attend to than during a summer morning breeze. If we stay in the breeze for the same amount of wind that we stood in the storm for, then maybe the amount we learn is equal?

Western philosophy is traditionally concerned with contrasting one grid with another grid, and amending grids in hopes of finding a perfect one that will account for all reality and will, hence, (say unenlightened westerners) be true. This is illusory; it is what we Erisians call the Aneristic Illusion. Some grids can be more useful than others, some more beautiful than others, some more pleasant than others, etc., but none can be more True than any other.
