Be Prepared to Die (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798822921412)

They tell us the journey is the destination. It is not. It's the other way... The destination is where the journey takes place. That destination, it is escape from The White Curtain. In order to live the life we want, we must have the courage to liberate ourselves. But how does one break free from the civilization they're born into? After all, none of us asked to be here, on this Earth.

This is a journey with many destinations. Destinations, both physical and mental of course; but also, conceptual and metaphysical. Can we craft our own reality? Or does actuality prevent this, as there are too many intersecting realities within our societies. Such thoughts, along with the weight of the Man Above, and the monotony of laboring for another's profits, one can easily drift toward nihilism.

But it's following your heart that matters most, when we feel the rebel within has lost its flame. We should seek a life of personal freedom, not commodified lives of consumer conformity. Escape, it is subjective. But to me, escape is a risk to find adventure and love, a revolt through freedom and passion. Escape, it is the combination of liberation and adoration that will lead to my revolution, to be free from the oppression of The White Curtain.
