Dahmer's Desires

Previously

…The fear of unworthiness had not vanished entirely, but it had been transmuted into a deep, abiding acceptance. He was worthy, not because he had achieved some perfect state, but because he was here, breathing, experiencing, a unique and precious expression of the universal consciousness. He was a wave, yes, but he was also the ocean, vast and eternal, and in that profound realization, he found a peace that was as deep and as boundless as the sky. He looked out at the setting sun, its fiery hues painting the horizon, a magnificent, fleeting masterpiece, and he smiled. The unfolding path was not a destination; it was the journey itself, lived with open eyes and a grateful heart.
