Waiting on the Other Side may be total desolation, eternal wandering of the sidereal plane calling out for help over and over. No. It won't be like that. There will be light, a lot of light. My moments of uncertainty are very brief. Life pulls me back in and it's hard for me to leave it behind.

To step inside a sealed, twelve-by-twelve-foot space with a wild animal that is many times your size is extremely hazardous to say the least. Yet sending these frightened animals out into the real world without giving them tools to safely deal with a new environment...could be disastrous. It would not be unlike sending a soldier on a mission without any training. Clearly, it was not a scenario lending itself toward safety or success for either horse or new owner.

The bigger and deeper this inner life grows, the less anyone of you will understand me. That's okay.

Her concentration was gone, and last night she had had a nightmare about discovering a formalism that let her translate arbitrary concepts into mathematical expressions: then she had proven that life and death were equivalent.
