“The end of all our exploring / Will be to arrive where we started / And know the place for the first time”
T.S. Eliot
May you be touched by the Fool.
I am Marcus Demetrius Link, thinker, writer, and entrepreneur. This is my blog where I travel as the Quantum Poet on my fool’s journey.
Everything here is about maps of meaning and pattern portals, inner journeys and modes of transportation, the transformation of being and the surrender to becoming. Most of all and in spite of its necessary inadequacies and inevitable limitations, it is about wholeness.
Wholeness is a quality of consciousness of life. This quality of consciousness is sometimes known as the Fool.
Maybe see you on the road?
