So yes, I have hit the wall - many times I've reached down in the darkness and found the bottom was still another 100 feet below me and all I can say with a hint of ambivalence "...man what a trip, what a journey..." And all the introspective chatter and cliches passing thru the test …

Walking On Shallow Water
Walking on shallow water Out in a deep blue sea Sweeping transparent views Earth and all its brilliance A distant shining light For the lost and lonely Draped in silk spun cloth Spun the way tales are Carefully weaved Tight intricate knots The High and Mighty Swirling poignant scent Of blessed incense Permeating the air …
