Sometimes it's so hard to hang onto little things to relieve the darkness . . . I hope my previous post didn't seem flippant because it's such a struggle for me. Sometimes cultivating a spiritual life seems worthwhile, and sometimes it's not enough . . . but I guess it's better to "act as if" something makes life worthwhile, even a nice shower, than to dwell on the nothingness.

"Sages of nothingness" -- you've got that right, Dayzee.
