"Only the mother tree remained in the middle of the clearing, bathed in light, heavy with fruit, festooned with blossoms, a perpetual celebrant of the ancient mystery of life." - OSC, Children of the Mind
"The difference between raman and varelse is not in the creature judged, but in the creature judging. When we declare an alien species to be raman, it does not mean that they have passed a threshold of moral maturity. It means that we have." - Demosthenes (OSC), Letter to the Framlings.
These two quotes sum up my mission on Xanga. Blogs are often an exercise in vanity, true. But they are also a celebration of life, an outcry into the void, seeking understanding without judgment, attention without responsibility. I am willing to endure ((((hugs)))), blogs pinker than a Victoria's Secret store, and deliberate spelling mistakes (wuz up peeps?) to partake in this philotic twining.
