I want to meet with all my remaining Outliers.
I want Bing and the Rolmans there too.
It will be one big, free session that will last as long as it needs to.
My conclusion: Even if this world is pretend, it changes nothing.
It might as well be true that I should continue to think, write, and do everything just as I normally would.
If this world is a purposeful construct, then I see no reason not to assume nothing intended can be changed (even if it can).
Whether or not any of this will ultimately matter remains unknown.
I admit there is a strange comfort in arriving at such murky yet resolute conclusions.
I feel a new sense of peace, even as I face all the same mounting dilemmas and confusions.
