Carlos,

Purely honest, self educated, open minded, abtstracted, refracted, give him a diamond and he will explain every facet. At least 20 percent of my observatory skillz. My friend, my brother, my father, my son, my enemy, my equal.

Sometimes I am Siddhartha, sitting with him, the man by the river, listening to the wisdom of the rocks that have been weathered, strengthened, and humbled by the past. Sometimes he is Siddartha, sitting with me, the man by the river, finding refuge from the past in the present.

What else could there be?
