Doffing the ego's safe glory, he finds his naked reality.
Do not seek death. Death will find you.
There is a point at which everything becomes simple and there is no longer any question of choice, because all you have staked will be lost if you look back. Life's point of no return.
It is playing safe that we create a world of utmost insecurity.
For all that has been, Thanks. To all that shall be, Yes.
Your position never gives you the right to command. It only imposes on you the duty of so living your life that others can receive your orders without being humiliated.
