When one stands before the Upper court, the only question they ask is, “Were you expecting salvation.” This is what matters, and not if my action is right or wrong.
We need to add something to what we have. It’s something opposite, yes. Instead of a bone, it’s a heart, for example. To become something more complex, less amoebic. It’s not that it’s unpleasant; it’s that I don’t long for it, like I don’t long for a sixth finger. But I can long for it through the influence of the society and the Reforming Light.
