The depth of human experience is human, not machine led. We get only facsimile,
yet, like art before, it will have to do, to communicate the experience of one
to the other. Or the other to the one. Indeed, a most elemental need.

Fresh, like rodents along a highway, killed by passing tires? Exploring holds
dangers for us little mice, so a farewell to fear is a solemn rite we must
perform. Bringing forth the last victim on a gurney, a virtual symbol of our
determination to conquer the terrors. If we were children, a shortage of
stacks in the library would shield us, however, as adults, we cannot rid
ourselves of books. They are too heavy. So, we must use the books to crush the
nasty cockroaches. Then, we can sit and explore with ease. An open mind, is a
mind without fear.

I hit my hands against brick walls to make the knuckles hard for karate. I
practice karate to get in shape. I get in shape to have less pain in my body.
Hitting the brick walls causes my body to have pain. The self-inflicted pain
of discipline is much better than the self-inflicted pain of neglect.

Form is a frozen moment, talking to yourself from the future to the past.
Someone else sees only the outer skin of the conversation. Though sometimes it
resembles their skin and they feel good about it. Since it is a conversation,
it can change anyway it needs to be spoken.

individual gives control to the whole society, releases and accepts
responsibility, loses ego, retains character.
