NGC 6357,

Also referred to as the Lobster Nebula, resides near NGC 6334 in the Scorpius constellation. Within its expanse, numerous proto-stars are veiled by dense gas disks, while young stars are enveloped in expanding gases resembling “cocoons.”

Dubbed the War and Peace Nebula by scientists, its infrared imagery depicts a dove-like figure in the western region and a skull-like appearance in the east.

Despite a failed attempt to rename it the Madokami Nebula, NGC 6357 remains a captivating celestial wonder.

"While imprisoned in the shed Pierre had learned, not with his intellect but with his whole being, by life itself, that man is created for happiness, that happiness is within him, in the satisfaction of simple human needs, and that all unhappiness arises not from privation but from superfluity. And now during these last three weeks of the march he had learned still another new, consolatory truth-that there is nothing in the world that is terrible. He had learned that, as there is no condition in which man can be happy and entirely free, so there is no condition in which he need be unhappy and not free. He learned that suffering and freedom have their limits and that those limits are very near together, that the person in a bed of roses with one crumpled petal suffered as keenly as he now, sleeping on the bare damp earth with one side growing chilled while the other was warming, and that when he had put on tight dancing shoes he had suffered just as he did now when he walked with bare feet that were covered with sores-his footgear having long since fallen to pieces. He discovered that when he had married his wife of his own free will as it had seemed to him- he had been no more free than now when they locked him up at night in a stable. Of all that he himself subsequently termed his sufferings, but which at the time he scarcely felt, the worst was the state of his bare, rubbed, and scab-covered feet. (The horseflesh was appetising and nourishing, the saltpetre flavour of the gunpowder they used instead of salt was even pleasant; there was no great cold, it was always warm walking in the daytime, and at night there were the camp-fires; the lice that devoured him warmed his body.)"

Leo Tolstoy - War and Peace

The Conflict of Interest.

3 years ago, I read a book

That told me everything I needed to know

But nothing I wanted to know.

So I had no choice but to become

The Villain.🍏

I became less concerned with the effect.

And more concerned with the cause.

But not just my “KAWS”...

I became concerned with

“The Cause of it All”

And from

Introspection & Extrospection

I have been able to grasp the

“causes of phenomena”

because

the need to find these causes are

“innate in the soul of man”

& until they investigate the “complexity of conditions concerning a

phenom-enon”

I watch as they

“snatch at the first, the most easily

understood approximation”

and say:

“This is the cause”!

¿But is this the book?

I know that technically there's no evidence for it in the books, but Dolokhov is definitely a furry and his fursona is a sabretooth tiger.
