Thank you. It sure is, and it is a lonesome path, in Hicksville, Deep South, USA. A church on every corner, and a liquor store, bootlegger, chemical substance and human trafficker in every third structure, that may or not attend your (or your parents') church, sit on town council, county commission, be a part of the PD or SO, your prosecutor, defender, governor, etc ad nauseum.

The stories are tribal, meant to explain happenings as best they could, bind commoners together, and later, as villages, cities, states, arose, to cement leaders into power. But leaders using the stories to sow and exacerbate division is eventually how empires eventually fall. Imo, that's the story of the Tower of Babel; not that people would become gods (behold I created you little gods, but you will die like men), but that they misused knowledge, and the power gained from it, to "lord it over" the commoners. The split language represents how , as seen itt, a person can say and mean one thing, and the audience understands it wildly differently. We progress and regress, and as brutal and unfair as it is to the masses and other life forms, resets happen, from evolutionary* pressures of opposing forces. The Big Bang. Dissipating noxious gasses to a breathable mixture, drinkable mixture. Extreme evolutionary pressure causing mutations that are a hindrance† now, useful adaptation later (the fittest isn't the strongest, most clever, but the able to adapt. Can we do it in a compassionate manner? Dawkins answered it in The God Delusion.)

In* the Tarot deck, the High Priestess* sits between the temple pillars, Boaz and Joachim, Wisdom and Compassion, Mercy and Severity, Masculine and Feminine, right brain, left brain. She represents both super-and subconscious wisdom, the counterpart to the heirophant, which at the most distilled level represents our core values, things we don't compromise, and she asks us to reevaluate what's written in stone (commandments). Either we are growing and changing, or we are dead, emotionally, mentally, physically. That's why a British spy said "Do what thy will (the truest will, heart's unchanging desire, not the ones that change) shall be the whole* of the law; love is law, love under will. We are not to regard the personal physical, emotional, social, or monetary loss or gain, because by not following our truest heart's desire, we have lost our ruach* - the spirit in the body (what does it profit a (hu)man to gain the world, and lose the soul?) There will be a time we are not physically able to chase our dreams. And that's why some end up tech bros. Their truest will is power, no matter how many or whom they sacrifice. But when the gasses inhabiting a world, cellular, corporal, planetary, universal, reach a state of perfect equilibrium, that world collapses (way oversimplified, but you get the point). The tensions and pressure are necessary for evolution. And that is the ultimate will of the collective life forces, isn't it? I have to post this to proof it. I hope it's legible and understandable, whether anyone agrees or not.

Blessing you, and everyone itt.
