Different, but the same. A synergy that made no sense, but every bit of sense. We were neither a beginning, nor an end.

We were neither fantasy, nor reality--- we were a purpose somewhere in between.

I am older than you. Believe me, there is no other way to live on earth. Men are not open to truth or reason. They cannot be reached by a rational argument. The mind is powerless against them.

The very narcissism and power he possesses prevent him from an ongoing relationship with the truth, which begins with self-humility and the curiosity this can create in a person.

And your questions cannot carry any shades of darkness; they must be as childlike as a curious and receptive student of Truth.
