Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky. He is your favourite author. If he is not then it is because you have not read him. You have the same restless spirit. I would recommend "Crime and Punishment" if you have not read it. If you have I am certain you know it by heart.

Is my Spirit restless? I enjoyed reading Dostoevsky very much, but I have never thought of him as my favorite writer. If I have ever fancied a writer then the writer was Chesterton. And this was because I was only beginning my journey in literature.
After that, I could only hope to be my favorite writer.

Yes. There are many layers. But a cook knows when to stop peeling. Or rather, there's a point which you can't Peel any more. I've been to that place: Identity. Here there's rest.

What about when the onion of life is a Mandelbrot set that goes on ad infinitum? Check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gEw8xpb1aRA

I did make a post or two. You missed them perhaps. The last one was about 'psychological warfare' and a strategy that would hopefully 'destroy' terrorism. But thinking about it left me tired. You found me catching my breath.

You were tired because you were at war. You have war fatigue.

In fact, I remember hearing one 'survivor' saying that she had seen God inside there. And I understood her. Yet I see that she had in fact, seen the devil. But earlier, before I became aware of what was happening at westgate, I had been paid a visit by this devil. I was looking at myself on the mirror, and there he was! Never before had I seen him so well. I saw his mind. And I saw him again at west gate, I am seeing him everywhere I look. Lol. I remember musing to myself, 'why, seeing the devil is so difficult, but seeing God is ten thousand times more difficult!'

Why should i believe your first hand account of seeing the devil and dismiss her first hand account of seeing God? A New Kenya

Why should i believe your first hand account of seeing the devil and dismiss her first hand account of seeing God? And even if you took one and dismissed the other, what difference would it make? You'd still have to see the devil for yourself and in yourself so as to be able to know which account is true.
