( Smatterings 1 )
My dear brother,
I know not how I got here. It is a very strange place indeed. Stranger than words can allow but I...
...hear a voice behind me... this is the way...
Brother Andrew, you have told me of a necessary light with which your instructors have told you about, and now I'm to tell you that the light is most astounding. It makes as if everything else is dark. Oh, and I do mean dark. As if the whole world is dark.
But to compare... the green is greener, the blue, bluer. But alas, the blood is bloodier. Great is the brightness.
Now even in the wilderness can be seen many trails as if they were all scattered at one time, and now with the light I see many trails any one of which you could follow and they all seem to lead to this main trail. But...
...and so when the skin...
...again, but in the long run it was decided that,...
And so Andrew, in trying to explain this place to you, it appears that there can be no comparison. The sun of course, you can understand for it's brightness. But, as for the blue of the sky or the red of the sky...and as we have discussed in times past, is not the awesome blue of the sky as the deep, deep blue of the eyes, or the red as the bright, bright red of the eyes!
It is to my shame dear Andrew, that I keep this journal for you and yet not as in time or dates, which perhaps you are aware, is my proper form of journals. But I have taken...
...as I have explained, time is not measured here as...
...in the event that a day should be equivalent to a week or at times that a day could be as a thousand years.
...but the flesh grovels for but a moment whe...
...and I shall not return in...
But, now as a cubit is of the measure...immeasurable but...for I was there.
10 ABIB
For your benefit have I attached this day, this day being the day of great discovery among this place. As I still travel alone, I am not alone...yet none will tell me of the day, month, and year.
But, as this is the day of discovery (for me, that is), I have marked it for you!
But do not attempt to compare 10 ABIB with any day of any of your calenders for it is not like that. I have told you that here everything is different. It is not done as the world does it. Lift your eyes, clench your fists (why?... you must hold on---- always, hold on), be strong. We shall see one another again!
I eagerly await,
I'll always love you,
Your Brother.
