To those who have read my work and wished me well on my journey, it is with tremendous pride and reassurance that I tell you . . . I have overcome nihilism! It took me twelve long, torturous years, but I am in the clear now.
For years, I knew not only what one becomes through life but also the values upon which the becoming proceeds. And somehow those values became worthless, empty, and false. And life became farcical. Even when I found new values, soon they too fell empty. Everything, I thought, was in vain. One after another, I opened doors that led no where, except to barren storm-swept cliffs where I would contemplate my hopelessness. That was how it was for a very long time. And then, during the week of January 21, I turned around, and, suddenly, there it was: meaning! It was like the difference between night and day. Everything became filled with meaning. It is no longer in vain to struggle and become. And value is no longer empty and transitory, but full and permanent. What an extraordinary development. I will definitely write more about this, but I was anxious to share the great news with this brief announcement. I predict that a period of tremendous growth, spirituality and insight will follow now. And I will share all of that with you as well.
