The world is made of glass.

Right, I understand.
You know those people who talk about goals?
They come out at Christmas and New Year and ask you what your goals are.I grew up in a situation where goals were inconceivable.
We had a toy as kids we made up that we called a 'Laliqueland Typewriter', presumably after lalique glassware.
The way it worked was you got a bike, put it upside down, got other wheels if you could get them, and then.....you connected all the wheels up with the string, and then moved one round, and then they all moved round, completely connected and (as I see now) unfree. This was deeply satisfying.So perhaps you can intuit that I am not a good person to ask about goals.
I suppose if Jesus (in person) turned up and said 'come, follow me'...well that would be good. I've never been good with freedom.
