To Where We Walk
“Everything has been figured out, except how to live.”
-Jean-Paul Sartre, a philosopher for philosophers who seek meaning amidst the chaos.
What can be known about life is a fleeting glance into the short eternity we find ourselves living. The path is one of discovery, wonder, and bemusement. Life is funny, and the joke is on for our uncertain futures cast tall shadows. The path preceding is worth it. Every step is worth it. Our destination is the journey. And we find ourselves on the other side, ever seeking love amidst the poetry that we live within our lives.
Foreword
This is the third book in the Soul in Words novella series. It cannot be fully understood without first reading the prior two books in the Beyond Description and Subsection Hope.
To Where We Walk chronicles a new era of my life. Many of the challenges of the previous eras were overcome, but my story is far from over. Each timed and dated entry in this book is a vignette granting a glimpse into my life and into the wisdom that I have always sought to attain.
Actualization is the key. It is always the key. And the question I pose to you is How will you attain it? I document my life to give you a chance. To illustrate all I went through to find it. May you find comforting moments in this book. May it give you access to perspectives you have not witnessed before.
The title of this book, To Where We Walk, refers to an early passage in my first “The path to joy is one of pain, but once you find it, that walk, while long, is overflowing with loving friends. Because when you walk to joy, others will follow. Others care! And so do I!” From page five of Beyond Description.
I dedicate all my work to helping people who struggle. It is not just for the LGBT+ community. It is dedicated to anyone who cannot find their way in life and anyone who seeks a way to do it. Let my life serve as an example. Let the tears I cried cure yours.
