"'The Other Maria' isn't about comfort. It is about hard truth, but also recognizing raw emotions that stem from feeling undeniably free. And what could one do with such a dark, yet wonderworking ability -- when the absence of fear and consequence presides over the judicious process leading to an enviable fate -- convinced that all actions are pure, justified, direct, but conniving. The feeling of relieved of all guilt and accountability? But as diabolical as it can be and appear. Along with the negative static, there can be progress. As true imposes are exposed, so does the transparency of reality. A precious truth that's needed to fully understand the severity of the situation. And with this, comes a valuable knowledge from a low level in which one once descended. Dreadfulness is softened to predictability." Jeff Mills, April 2023
