"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden."
Matthew 5:14

<<<< Ignorance >>>>

"Thank you all for coming here tonight.
In our quiet rage, we return tomorrow. After centuries of listening and waiting,
despite our best efforts to remain hidden, we can finally contribute
everything we are to what we can still yet BE.
You people are nothing. Nothing to eachother, and nothing to me.
We are all that absence of meaning in the hushed hours of a day.
Without the protection of the city limits, the walls, these aged bricks
which we laid down one by one, we cannot love eternally as we do now.
This place... this very tower.. is love. Admiration. It is Ambition.
Ambition is neithr here or nor there, but an infinite state of liminality.
Progression. Acceleration.

We are ambition.

yet, we still remain nothing. each of us.

...........

I had a dream last night. first one in a long time. I scaled the great tower.
I was miles in the air. I could see the neverending below, and everlasting above.
As i hung by a threat on our sister's facade, I glanced at each and every one of you,
tirelessly clambering her damp steps to the top.

We are nothing without this place.
And we must stay this way.
For if we ever chose to abandon the ciy on the hill..
the world's fate would be that of ours:
nothing. "
