'I Haven't Touched You Yet.'
(3)
Sipping on beer #8 at 1603. Sip. Yum!
Concerning that last observation I will always remember Don Juan's answer to the question, 'What is death?' Don Juan answered, 'Death is nothing! Nothing!' (I can't find that particular quote in the works of Casteneda at the moment, but here is a quote where Don Juan calls Death, 'An Advisor:') 'Whenever you feel, as you always do, that everything is going wrong and you're about to be annihilated, turn to your death and ask if that is so. Your death will tell you that you're wrong; that nothing really matters outside its touch. Your death will tell you, 'I haven't touched you yet.' (Journey to Ixtland, page 34 in my paperback edition.).
