Wonderful piece, Shaye! Always so excited to read your words. If you haven’t read it before, I’d highly recommend All the Names by Jose Saramago! Besides being one of my all-time favorites, I think it fits nicely with this essay re: labyrinths, creating/finding meaning, etc.

Thank God your prodigal voice has returned. And with all the force of survival, Sysyphian effort, and stunning impact. This is a beautiful statement. And it will cause a glorious mental indigestion for hours to lifetimes to come. Thank you for bringing it forth. Thank you for laying it open. Thank you for filleting these concepts so skillfully we are left with just the finest cuts, and we are momentarily satiated. But even as we swallow this delicious piece, we hunger for more. So good to have you back up!
