abyss, we end in a dark abyss, and we call the luminous interval life. As soon as we are born the return begins, at
once the setting forth and the coming back; we die in every moment. Because of this many have cried out: The goal of life is death! But as soon as we are born we begin the
struggle to create, to compose, to turn matter into life; we are born in every
moment. Because of this many have cried
out: The goal of ephemeral life is
immortality! In the temporary living
organism these two streams collide: (a)
the ascent toward composition, toward life, toward immortality; (b) the descent
toward decomposition, toward matter, toward death. <o:p></o:p></i></div><div class="MsoNormal">. . .</div><div class="MsoNormal">And, later</div><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i>Which of the two
eternal roads shall I choose? . . . Of the two, I choose the ascending
path. Why? . . . I choose the ascending path because my
heart drives me toward it.<o:p></o:p></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><o:p> </o:p></i></div><div class="MsoNormal">Seems, every time I encountered Wayne, in person, over the
phone, via email, I met a man who chose the ascending path. Blessings</div><div>
