The Clueless
Dear Ghoulfriend,
If a tree falls in the forest and there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
-Frank
Dear Frank,
This is the ultimate conceit of humankind. You persist in the belief that you are so important you have the power to control natural events, or that events transpire only because of your presence. Please do not delude yourself. You are nothing. Your existence on this earth is meaningless. You are but a dust mote floating on an errant breeze and when your egocentric carcass has turned to powder, trees will still fall and still make a sound. Thanks for writing!
Love,
Ghoulfriend
