I do have some understanding of the people who make bombs, not because there is any connection between the shattering mirrors and escaping one's fate, but because it is so tempting to think that there is. That moment of destruction when the bomb goes off and somehow we are still intact, alive, and part of the future--that's a moment of pure being, and moment when the self glows with its own light, when it isn't reflecting anything.
