The Fall

I am finally here. The fall has been breathtaking. I could offer up a multitude of emotions to describe it, but the best is to say that it came like a long storm with fears, imprisonment and loss. Like storms, the fall cannot be stop or halted. I could have went willingly, I suppose, rather than kicking and screaming, but either way, all was as it should have been and the finale is spectacular, in the sense of recognitions emerging and clarities after the clouds dissipate and the mist parts. One might think that arriving at an Avalon is the end. It is only the beginning. School starts now, just like a small child, and as they learn through the senses, so am I.

I can feel things as if an increased awareness has peeked through. I don't know where it comes from excepting that traveling on the spiral is a good metaphor. It is not enlightenment, nor the void. One might be able to call it the Land of Nothingness, but it is more so, the Nether, a place of hollowness that suddenly gets filled with one's shadow, embracing it like a reunion with an old friend. I am here with a Nether me.
