Much of my life is about the observance, ritualization, and remembrance of transitions. I discover patterns, predict terminations, and prepare for rebirths. Like the Phoenix I periodically burn away my old self leaving only ashes. Those essential elements which will not burn. Like a crucible I am purified, stripped down to my most basic aspect, and from the ashes I rise again.
Three times I have done this. Every seven years I have done this. And every time I have returned, like the Bodhisattva, to the cycle of Samsara. So that I may learn once and for all to break the next cycle.
