the soft one
I’m the soft one.
:- Doug.

Destiny, hope, faith, mystery. Those, of humankind and the cosmos in toto, are what we explore in eldering.
:- Doug.
The boon that I bring you you will not be able to understand until you reach an age when it cannot possibly do you any good in this world. Do you know what I mean by “this world?” You cannot. I do not mean earth now and heaven later. I do not refer to politics nor partisans. I mean a way of being beyond a way of thinking. I mean earth and ashes, blood and beer, infused with, set afire by, enfolded in, cosmos. No. You cannot know.
:- Doug.

Is age simply a waiting to die?
Is retirement for playing all day?
Or maybe for non-doing something?
