There is a reason everyone mentions the light at the end of the tunnel.
No matter what road you have taken, at the end of the journey you have the choice to take a different path or repeat the journey again if you have not gained wisdom from it. Big and small.
There is a reason that your journey ended with you sitting in a chair. You can have all the knowledge you desire but wisdom comes from the experience of the journey. You have that now from walking that path but will you see it or choose to ignore it?
Life is not about the pain, that is the distraction from the obvious.
You looked in the mirror and saw confusion. Look behind and you will see illusion. Who's eyes are you wearing? I think you know the answer to that.
The whole point in all of us being here is to experience everything possible. Look at that in a bigger picture or a smaller picture, once you can see that, you can see it in a mirror as your reflection smiles back at you.
In the end you will have experienced every good and every bad. That is life and your chapter is everyones experience, as is mine, as is everyones because that is who we are and that is why we are here.
Do not let pain confuse you or distract you from what is in front of you.
As for your signature, if Einstein thought he did not know gods thoughts he must have been an empty confused man.
"Know thyself."
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty."
"You are only hurting yourself"
Now open the door and walk a new path.
