Re: [Mind's Eye] Re: its almost 5 a.m,

Isnt there so much freedom in the very briefest of ways in recklessness.... it is freedom...in experience.... freedom from consequence.... i know it can have moral implications... what a pity that every thing... everything can be perverted......

Isn't joy a form of recklessness? What is a "leap of faith"? Why are

lock in a sense of joy and physical death wraps up the issue. Your
influence will be decided by others.
