The question is not if life is heaven or hell;
rather why the dragon hides its head beneath its wing.

 

--Where are You?
--Don’t you know Me by now?
I’ve been hiding inside Pandora’s Box
since the beginning of Time.

 

It is quite alright with me
that I will never again depart through the front door of this House.
All I ask is that I may visit every now and again
to touch and watch its flowers grow;
for my Truth has always been and will be as the rising and setting Sun!
