Escape
------

Man, on his own, cannot reach higher than his own ego. He cannot break
out of his own skin, he cannot lift himself up by pulling at his own
hair. All of his achievements are tied to his own ego. All that he may
comprehend is defined by his own subjective perception. He is a prisoner
by virtue of existence.

So G-d threw Man a rope. He gave him tasks to fulfill that are beyond
hiscomprehension, thoughts to fathom that take him outside the hollow of
his subjective universe. All that is needed is his willingness to leave
himself.

We are all prisoners. But we sit on the keys.

Shalom!
