08 Feb 4704 - Pain of Transition
I am glad to say I have met wise men in my time on this Earth. I'm sure it would be a sad state
for me otherwise, but I probably would not be able to tell. There was one who taught the whole classroom
of us about the pain of transition, although he didn't call it that. What he was talking about were
matters of life and death, so clearly no concern of mine. His words: living is good, and death isn't so bad;
it's dying that's really terrible. I remember him also imparting a message of consolation of the dying and the dead.
That is a simple reflection of the pain of transition, and again, no concern of mine. The pain of transition itself
is a concern of mine, and it would be good to discuss it as news.
I have felt the pain of transition from
peaceful times to not peaceful times. The thrill of battle and victory awaits, and I go willingly, with my eyes open.
It may even prove fun.
I'm closer to getting the club started than ever before. Obstacles still include a general lack of knowledge of the
bureaucracy of the making of clubs (read: knowledge of the unknowable), and a single signature from an appropriate agent.
The signature I shall have as soon as certain parties arrange a meeting. Maybe I should give that constitution a lookings-
over as well...
