So here I am, nearly at the end of this journey of reflection, facing the task of pulling together all the experiences, thoughts, unanswered questions and suggestions in order to make sense of what happened.

His writing has enlightened my thinking and been a great resource to arm my intellect and strengthen my conviction when I have had to justify my seemingly strange ideas. I recommend his works to anyone interested in further reading.
