This man walks where there is no path. He leaves no path. But he is assured. Find your own path. Once you find it you will discover it is nameless because no one else has traveled it before. It is yours and yours alone. Call it what you will. In fact, once you find your own path, you will realize that there is no path at all. It is simply where you are in a boundless, limitless, eternal freedom. Space... Read more
