Tabula Rasa

There is an overwhelming freedom in growing older.

Time, space, energy - so plentiful, so rich even when in absence. As a transcendent being, I feel an endless universe of possibility before me. Yet sometimes, when on Earth, the simple mortal act of sitting feels too much, feels too guilt-ridden and shame-shrouded. I know I must. I must recoup, recharge, realign my spiritual self. So I sit. I allow myself the time to think. Introspection is such a rare and valuable gift that so many of us take for granted. Yet today, in giving myself that permission, I have reached a monumental decision. One that has been weighing heavily on my soul. Today I have decided to finally die. It is time. I have seen too much of this earth and the horrors that each generation brings in a never ending attempt at conclusive domination. It cannot exist, and I can no longer bear to witness it. This is a decision that has been playing on my mind for millennia. Then we met, one visit, and we spoke, and everything clicked itself into place. It is here, in this place of sitting, that I can see, with such clarity, that there is no longer a need to hold on.
