We have arrived for where I set off to begin. Scott said his trip was about the Suez and we just accomplished that, now we are at mine. We just left the coast of Egypt at Port Said and have entered the waters of the Mediterranean; the cradle and birthplace of western thought and civilization. With its democracy, trade, education, society, imperialism, capitalism and religion.

It is this that made me leave the States for it is the pinnacle of its creation. I came for this reason; it is of no use to trim or cut off the branches of an unwanted tree, for they will continue to grow back. But you must take your axe and put it to the root of the tree. So, I am at the root of western civilization and truth shall be my axe. I must live the life that requires living, not the living that requires life.
