Brian’s collected pieces, volume by volume.
Take what the books offer you only until your years and your lived experience exceed their pages and wisdom. You do not see the mountain while climbing the mountain. Only a dramatic fall can offer the great perspective you so deeply desire. The moth is drawn by the light but dies in the flame. You are drawn by the flame but reborn in the light.
