I Feel That Man Can Transcend Himself

My Purpose Was What My Father's Purpose Was - To Make A Living And To Have A Family. I Was Going To Do The Right Thing. My Dream To Me Was To Have Money To Support It And To Live In The Kind Of House I Liked.

In The Army When We Had Judo Classes, Out Of The Class Of 27 Just Me And Another Guy Graduated. I Grew To Enjoy It Because I Knew I Could Do It Well. I Tried To Do Everything Well.

All Life On Earth Is Subject To The Rumbles And Rockings Of The Parent Stucture Which Has No Control Over The Disastrous Effects Of Its Stresses And Strains On Whatever Thrives On Its Surface. The Ambitions And Dreams Of Men Are Irrelevant To This Planetary Giant Which Pursues Its Own Way In Its Own Manner. Man Is Its Child, Tenant And Still, To This Date, Its Captive.
