“There are times when one
feels liberated from one’s
limits and human
imperfections.
At such moments, we see
ourselves there, in a little

our eyes fixed in wonder on
the cold and yet deep
beauty of that which is
eternal, that which is
elusive.
Life and death are fused
together and there is no
evolution, nor destination,
there is only BEING.”
