the forerunner

. I believe that if there is to be light, there must be darkness first. Perhaps if there is hope, there must be despair, utter despair, to precede. And if there exists true self, in any sense, there must be destruction of self to begin. I may have learned something of dying to self - certainly if I speak much here, I obviously have learned little.

[Glenn Peirson in I am Keats as you are, in a letter from Kapsowar, Kenya]
