These thoughts appear to be real, but every single one of them is false. Yes, they emerge in our minds, and we are used to them being there, but they do not represent the truth about who we truly are and what we are here to do.

It is one of the triumphs of the human that he can know a thing and still not believe it.
John Steinbeck • East of Eden
Writing is mystagogy. It is leading oneself, or others, into a great mystery. Their own lives are a mystery. It is a good place to start.
The normal and the everyday is a mystery, too. Yet few people have the eyes to see it that way

When your thoughts are about you being less than boundless and free, they are not telling the truth.

"I'm beginning to hear the teachings of my blood pulsing within me. My story isn't pleasant, it's not sweet and harmonious like the invented stories; it tastes of folly and bewilderment, of madness and dream, like the life of all people who no longer want to lie to themselves.”
