Interesting post. I am wondering if you've ever heard of G.I. Gurdjieff. If not, I think you would find what he has to say. Most people start, not by reading him, but by reading P.D. Ouspensky, but I find Gurdjieff to be far more interesting. His book, "Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson" starts off in a fairly annoying way, but I find it worthwhile. He refers to himself as an Esoteric Christian. He has some strange notions, but they are interesting. It is about Beelzebub who is on a spaceship flying around the cosmos. When he spots the strange planet earth, he tells his grandson all about the comical beings who inhabit that planet and the crazy things they do and why they do them. You can read it online at this link: https://www.holybooks.com/beelzebubs-tales-grandson-gurdjieff/
Wow, Jason, thank you for the recommendation! I've not heard of either author. Sounds like fascinating Gaimanesque abstraction? Those are always interesting!

I've never read Gaiman. I'll have to check him out. Thank you.
