"Nothing must be sustained because it is ancient, because we have been accustomed to regard it as sacred, or because it has been unusual to bring its validity into question." -William Godwin
"On Parables.
Many complain that the words of the wise are always merely parables and of no use in daily life, which is the life we have. When the sage says: 'Go over,' he does not mean that we should cross some actual place, which we could do anyhow if the labor were worth it; he means some fabulous yonder, something unknown to us, something too that he cannot designate more precisely, and therefor cannot help us here in the very least. All these parables really set out to say merely that the incomprehensible is incomprehensible, and we already know that. But the cares we have to struggle with every day: that is a different matter.
Concerning this a man once said: Why such reluctance? If you followed the parables you yourselves would become parables and with that rid of all your daily cares.
Another said: I bet that is also a parable.
The first said: You have won.
The second said: But unfortunately only in parable.
The first said: No, in reality, in the parable you have lost."-Franz Kafka

Regardless, the avi is supreme. And I envy your visual flawlessness.
Joyous Spring, darling pet. heart
I'm just bored nowadays, and too often, so I will waste time on here.
I even updated my avatar thing ^.^
We'll figure something out - after I get my work done. I'm free game on Thursday, thank G-d.
I've been looking for someone to do work with, actually.
