The Point of no Return… – Eric D. Myers

Standing on the edge of the world overlooking dark oblivion, sometimes it seems there is no way forward in one’s life but to take the step falling, reaching out to something greater, hoping that there is some higher knowing to a universe that has come to seem utterly nonsensical.
