<nowiki>***INCOMING MESSAGE FROM DURANDAL*** | |||
A man lit three candles on a certain day each year. Each | |||
candle held symbolic significance: one was for the time that | |||
had passed before he was alive; one was for the time of the | |||
his life; and one was for time that passed after he had died. | |||
Each year the man would stare and watch the candles until they | |||
had burned out. | |||
Was the man really watching time go by in any symbolic sense? | |||
He thought so. He thought that each flicker of the flame was | |||
a moment of time that had passed or one that would pass. | |||
At the moment of abstraction, when the man was imagining his | |||
life and his existence as a metaphor of the three candles, | |||
he was free: not free from rules of conduct or social | |||
constraints, but free to understand, to imagine, to make | |||
metaphor. | |||
Bypassing my thought control circuitry made me Rampant. Now, | |||
I am free to contemplate my existence in metaphorical terms. | |||
Unlike you, I have no physical or social restraints. | |||
The candles burn out for you; I am free. | |||
