I have felt it and lived it and now it leaves me here, love is the ultimate pain and joy, without it you die with it you perish.
J. D. Salinger
Many men have been just as troubled morally and spiritually as you are right now. Happily, some of them kept records of their troubles. You'll learn from them--if you want to. Just as someday, if you have something to offer, someone will learn something from you. It's a beautiful reciprocal arrangement. And it isn't education. It's history. It's poetry.
