Just finished this chapter I’ve spent damn near a 9 months on. Relieved and . . . damn that was a long time 😂

light it is also more naturally occurring than light? I’ve admittedly made a couple jumps and if you’re reading this you’ve jumped in midway through a conversation I’ve been having with myself, the articles I’m reading and a few other people

does take place in darkness. There isn’t enough light to completely eradicate darkness at any time. And if darkness is present-eminent to light but light cannot surpass darkness it just highlights that there is further darkness to explore than is darkness not only faster than…

If light carries information. Is the uncertainty associated with darkness indicative of the darkness being the natural state of information. Darkness is not the negation of absence of material being carried it becomes the cloak of activity in that it all that would takes place…
