Dear Synergy Press fans:

I hope this email finds you well.

I'm pleased to have completed my essay entitled "Reaching Pain's End of Means", as before it was only missing the conclusion I recently shared with you as a controversial quote. Together, this is more powerful and original.

For your convenience, I have attached it inside as text as well as a Word doc and as a Google doc.

I am eager to receive my reimbursement/advance funds for me to survive and to pay my bills.

Reaching Pain's End of Means

"The sudden absence of prayer creates sudden relief and elimination. Because without prayer, there can be no praise. And so, we must submit or tolerate sins, not the projection of it onto others in the form of malice and control that stops the sharing of faith and, even worse, starts the insecurity that has no courage to sustain the optimism to leave behind Good Works and the acts of hope that suggest 'you' and 'us' of a personal spiritual authority that can conquer both death as well as delusional fears and doubts that underestimate the 'them' of judgment and overestimation of the 'me' of selfishness and vanity instead of the recognition of mercy and charity.

To sum this metaphysically, in the cold, we feel like Heathcliff's claim that Cathy's su***de in the classic novel “Wuthering Heights” by Emily Brontë brought about a higher order that has to do with the motion of the winds and the clouds that create order, a weathering of the world above sea level... on the cliffs, in the spiritual realms of a passive soul and mind.

For with this spiritual and ethical coldness comes the spontaneous combustion of an active heart and body. The result? The desire to control the realities around us, if for no other reason, to prove to ourselves a new reason for our environment to quiet and leave us with its fear, order, and guilt that catalyzes sharing, by ‘us’ and a 'you' we all hold sacred like a ‘moral authority’ that builds hierarchies of order between the 'them’s’ and ‘me's' of change that frustrate our non-acceptance of another's greed and freedom with a need to trust and depend without any such higher authority or dogmatic end, much like confusion causes a belief in the reciprocity of greed and dependence by two partners as well as in a self-fulfilling prophecy that trust and freedom are the moral foundations of “Sociological Truth” by which charity and love are seen by ‘the have's’ as “inverse sadness” and by ‘the have-not's’ “relative happiness”: the Roman Catholic Church’s so-called “mystery of our faith” that preaches the existence of an “egalitarian place” for all who pray to and praise God.

Because when men fight guilt and desire, it creates female ambition that attracts women by another's hope. Because for a man, a woman's fighting against his own his guilt and desire, creates ambivalence in female ambition as fear then creates competition which only accepts another's guilt or desire IF this alienates him from other competing women by the compromises he makes just to keep her interested in him simply because those who accept guilt and desire for one another hope for mutual attraction: which is really our planting of the seeds of sharing by being less likely to want to be influenced by the alienation of attraction.

For a woman, to accept her own guilt and desire is to invite a greater possibility of her alienation by his passion due to newfound choices she identifies with because a passive or active mind and heart will discover the giving of choice just as a passive or active soul and body may inherit the taking of passions. The fear from competition makes the fighting of guilt or desire dangerously ambitious. The hope from compromise
makes the acceptance of guilt or desire into a
beautiful social and autonomous ambivalence
that always encourages us to seek the
‘Testimonio’ of effort’s new beginnings after
we have found faith in ourselves and in our
“family of faith’s” two fundamental
promises of both a sacred law for masculinity
and a humane act of significance of
femininity which has defined the civilized
world before the June 18, 1815 surrender of
the onetime Roman Emperor Napoleon
Bonaparte as we now realize that absolute
power by God alone creates familial equity
and progress instead of just arrogant
resistance to any who claim to act and be
accountable to what I call “Holy Bible
Sociology.”

Absolute choice in making progress results in the justice of moral, social, and economic change. Unrequited passion supplies the resistance that results in the obsessions that demand acceptance. Unfortunately, laws by the means of checks and balances restrict most changes if they cannot be accepted by the many while acts of justice are usually considered obsessive if they cannot be used ideologically or politically. In others, absolute power corrupts, not only for change but also for fighting for the acceptance of the few or of the one."
