18. I'm sure I will
The premise sounds exactly like Paul.

I adore the man's writing. I've known Paul for years and he's really a nice, happy, upbeat kinda guy. But his writing can surely put you through an emotional wringer.

Like in Revelation. Where Ace is shown a rose and offered the choice between a nice happy carefree life or remaining herself and being conflicted and emotional and unhappy but aware and she grasps the thorns and says "I choose pain". Or later when she is given that wonderful life and sees Manisha and realizes how pointless happiness is if it means being unaware of what happened to Manisha.

Paul being militant: :"Their are people you can't know, books you can't read, songs you can't hear, not if you want to be a part of the world" And it's a battle cry against that kind of world.


So in short, I'm looking forward to "Father's Day".

Khash.
