Today I am out. I am not IN. I am out and I am back. I am trying to summarize what I've learned, the positive things of course. I feel I just want to write poetry all the time now (perhaps poetry is intrinsic in man?). Paradise is nice and I've been There. It is a constant struggle for man to surrender. The stronger the man, the harder he fights, and the greater the reward if he loses, or wins, or reconciles.

p.s. another "quotable" i wrote today:

mind is man's greatest pride
and also his deadly enemy
