The Spirit Talks to the Void

In the latest episode of THE THREE-HEADED MAN titled "The Spirit Talks to the Void," the discussion revolves around profound and existential topics. The conversation begins with an exploration of what happens when the spirit leaves the body.

The concept of "Know thyself" is then brought forward, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness and introspection. The group engages in a thought-provoking conversation about the complexities of identifying the spirit within oneself amidst the multitude of internal thoughts, emotions, and desires.

The conversation shifts to the notion of overlapping others, contemplating how our individual spirits and identities intersect with those around us. The group ponders the challenges and dynamics of navigating relationships and connections within a crowded existence.

The episode takes a turn towards a discussion on the uncaring and destructive aspects of wild nature. The group reflects on the inherent lack of benevolence in the natural world and explores the paradox of creation's simultaneous capacity for both beauty and destruction.

Fred M Schill

I like to do. I like to make things. And, I like telling stories. I tell stories to myself and to others.

First, a short biography, which is, of course, is a story. I was born in Cleveland, played sports, and attended university. Later, after a few years in the radio business, I returned to university to study education and literature.

With a teaching certificate in my file folder, I began working in high schools, first as a strike-breaking scab substitute teacher in Cleveland's far suburbs, and then in Chicago, mostly in private high schools.

Cleveland and Chicago. My two main towns, and I escaped them both. Presently, I live in a tiny, isolated, mountain village in Spain. I am reluctant to write the name of the town because I don't like tourists. When the tourists arrive, they look at me as if I am an animal in a zoo.
