you're an explorer and you're wandering the jungles of far-away land "x". you burst through the tropical underbrush and discover a gorgeous fountain carved from marble and adorned with pearl.

do you find yourself hoping that it is a fountain of youth, beauty, truth, or knowledge?

Well, really my answer would be none of the above, but if I have to choose from those I'd go with... hmm... damnit, none of the above! Ok ok. Um. How about... truth? Or knowledge? Damnit, none of the above!!! Mine would be like a fountain of possibility, divine grace, and creation all rolled into one. And that is the best I can explain it.

i'd go with youth.

on an infinite timescale, i have all the time in the world to attain beauty and knowledge, and through my knowledge truth.

then you'd exist in a state of knownothing, and truth would be yours, and truth leads to beauty and when you have truth, why do you need knowledge?

really, so long as you don't start with beauty, any of them can lead to the others.

beauty.

i am insecure and have horrible abandonment issues. i attatch myself to beautiful things and beautiful people because i am a mindwrecked little boy who wants to be adored and looked at the way that i look at the saints and the lovers. i don't care about knowledge, and imortality isn't something i'm prepared for. truth, fuck, as much as i claim to be a shamanminded truthseeker all i really do is take a lot of psychadelics so that maybe i can understand myself a little better. i believe everything as it is, and if i knew that everything i believed was wrong i'd be even more completely wrecked. also, i wan't nothing of knowledge. any knowledge that i have is completely coincidental. thought is the enemy, to quote an old antiguru.

if i have beauty, i could be protected, cared for, treated kindly and that other thing that people do with beautiful things.

wow, all this seriousbusiness is making me dizy. i should stick to cryptia and illusion.

Psh. With my luck, it'd just be a bidet.
