E,
Your only real burden is to tell the truth. This will be easier in
younger years and in the right spaces. When there is no pull or push on your
soul and extraordinarily little to lose by looking or feeling stupid. It will
seem like you are real enough at times and this little bit of a lie may be
useful to get you out of awkward situations. This is the first step down a slippery
slope. A more convenient fiction will always be more desirable than any hard
bit of truth. You must learn early to know the difference.

Why is the truth so important? I fear in your age this will be an even
more pertinent question. It will be a true moral question if the lie can be
better than the truth. This already appears in stops and starts in mine, but it
will have its full day in yours.

The truth is important because we believe in the answer to the absurdity
of life more than the question it raises. Cadmus was absolutely right to point
out the flaw in finite life. We believe that the answer to that flaw is
infinite life. This is an objective sense of belief. We are not creating a
subjective reality; we are submitting to an objective one. Our first premise is
that all things must make some sense. Our second is that we may not have the
mind to conceive the dynamics and specifics of that reality. Our third is that
objective reality is not just a way of looking at things but a being. You know
where this is going.

The truth will always matter because at the centre of the universe sits
an unyielding force that creates everything else. Reality is framed in His
image and present reality is marked by Her absence. This being, genderless and
gender-full, is the basis of all truth and being. It is essential that we do
not make Them up. It is vital that we accept this reality. In Their eyes lies
the infinite life of all things. In that powerful and perfect soul lies all
things bright and beautiful, all things great and small, all being and all
life, all light and all suns and all galaxies and all forms. And all the things
we do not know and cannot possibly conceive. Here, is the truth about everything.
