When I realized I could alter my mind, I found I could alter my reality. Suddenly thoughts were buttons I could push to manipulate my subconscious. Feelings were compasses. There was a knowing that came and whispered: Follow your fears and own them before they own you - and I let it wash over me till I understood that it was terrible and terribly true.

As you wake up each morning, hazy and disoriented, you gradually become aware of the rustling of the sheets, sense their texture and squint at the light. One aspect of your self has reassembled: the first-person observer of reality, inhabiting a human body.
At the same time I should like to emphasis that I have never built up a philosophy of my own or wished to establish a new school of thought. Perhaps the greatest thing I have learnt is never to think for myself; I fully agree with Andre Gide that “Toutes choses sont dites deja” (All things are already known), and what I have sought is to understand what has been said, while taking no account of the “inferior philosophers”. Holding with Heraclitus that the Word is common to all, and that Wisdom is to know the Will whereby all things are steered, I am convinced with Jeremias that the human cultures in all their apparent diversity are but the dialects of one and the same language of the spirit, that there is a “common universe of discourse” transcending the differences of tongues.

«What we believe to be true is defined by our frame of reference. As useful as that may be, inevitably, something will come along to make us rethink what we know by forcing us to look at it in a broader context. What is true within a certain frame continues only until the next frame is discovered.», Imaginary Foundation
Good night. May we dream of this.
What would be the life of any human being without the door of imagination?
