How to chart a life? Measure its profits? Its losses? I think it is by the challenges taken on, the difficult trades made, win or lose. In the end, no matter how much you have managed to document, most of what you know is lost. Much that is great cannot be explicit, it must be tacit. Only a very dedicated spirit would wish to return. I am not so very far away myself. I choose oblivion. Once around was almost too much to bear.

Hey, Merchant. Thank you for your calm reflection. My story was of the Tower of Babel in the Old Testament. The New Testament also mentions the falling of a tower. The lesson to be learned is not to be caught 'unawares' by death. Make preparation for it. Spiritually. My life is what it is, mostly intensely private. There is some stress. Today was particularly stressful. I needed to have someone to commiserate with about it. I tend to be overly chatty, sometimes. I am recovering nicely from just my first chemo in this cycle and am in much better condition healthwise. I wonder if I will even need more treatments in this cycle? So, I'm cheerful and happy about that outcome. I'm dependent on pain killers, now. But, I want to return to gym workouts ASAP. This will help overcome the dependence. To be honest, I don't know how you can continue to stay in character, all the time. Thanks again for letting me lean on you. I need someone to figure me out from time to time. I'll just stand a little distance away and admire your talent both at the trading screen and with your characterizations. What you have is a rare commodity by my measures.
Trading good death practice. Merchant die little every day. Get even on ET. Try kill stupidity each day. But Merchant die before ET smart. Fear not death if not want live. Camus write: "There is only one truly serious philosophical question, and that is suicide."
