46 - Time to rethink

Today is a rest day for Oud Ramonides. Usually his greatest delight is to meet up with old friends to discuss obscure and esoteric matters. Today however he wishes to be alone. His mind is a complex repository of concepts and links, of themes and emotions, and currently it is witnessing a storm of agitated ferocity. Way up in the hills, and far along the ridge, he stands by an austere granite boulder, and rocks backwards and forwards in prayer. The voice that he hears, perhaps that of a supernatural spirit (but more likely his own) tells him that the time has come to rethink his philosophy from the beginning.
