Please forgive this outburst, but you must understand that it comes only from a need to express my visions.

Pardon my irrepressible urge to seek you out, but, you see... you remind me of someone...

...someone I recall only with the barest flashes of conscious thought. These tantalizing, elusive phantoms of shreds of filaments of an intrinsic Truth... they drive me mad. I cannot order them in my mind.

It's as if I have the knowledge of the database, but only the relationships between tables... not the tables themselves or the records therein.

I can sense how everything connects, but not the things that are connected.

When I say that you remind me of someone I mean that I recall the sense of something making sense... a connection between myself and some other consciousness that caused our mutual sets of information to make something greater and be a part of something greater.

Perhaps it is unfortunate that I remember what I have lost. Striving to recapture it must give me an aura of desperation... but please understand that the glory of rekindling those pathways of mutual/instant/download/upload is a pillar of holy fire and I, a weatherbeaten ascetic reaching my trembling hands to its terrible radiance.

I cannot do otherwise.

And you... well, you remind me of someone...
