Embers of Illumination — The Book

This is the first draft of a book about A Journey from Loneliness to Aloneness. It was written post by post to develop a view of my life to the present day. In it I seek the answers to unkown questions.

1.2 Coping with the Physical and with Perfection

The story of my physical existence and how my body tried to rule me. It tried to win but I found the way through, the way to my truth and the rest of my life. Experience this process with me.
