Mm... believe me, there was a lot of sitting and meditating. But the truth is, where I was at the time isn't where I was going to find the answer. It's where I was meant to be, up until it wasn't. I only started learning more once I left home with the right people.

[At his question about the void... hmm.]

I'm not sure what was waiting for me. It changed... never quite resonated. Sometimes the emptiness was enough of a kindness that I craved it. To not think what might've happened. To not imagine the worst-case scenario.
