Seculo Seculorum... Surgam

Lessing wrote, "There are things which must cause you to lose your mind & reason or you have none to lose." Upon reading this, I began to examine the statement with the kind of "eye for detail" a doctor has in searching for a cancerous cell.

"What have I lost," I asked myself. "What have I gained?"

$3.60 means things come full circle.

And for things to come full circle, I believe I needed to undergo... to experience the full cycle.

To be born. To live. To die. And to be reborn. Pluto. Scorpio. Hades. Underworld. Unseen. Unknown. Known.




I have undertaken this task... of redemption... of "Redemption" for Cathartic reasons... In hopes that it might be purifying or purging for both you and I. "In real life, men are sometimes too much addicted to pity or fear, sometimes too little; tragedy brings them back to a virtuous and happy mean." Tragedy is then corrective.

With that said, I hope this experience is pleasurable for you. I hope you can find some meaning in it, and walk away better than you came.

Sincerely,

AJS
