"going to have to face the music, like it or not".

"yanking away all delusional security blankets."
--Naturyl

---------------------------
Some of us have already faced our own music and
yanked away all our own delusional security blankets.

What remains is that thing (essence or spirit) that you
find so elusive and frightening. If you were seeking to
understand it or even "possess" it, I would continue
to "play." But since you've made it clear that your
motive is to destroy it (which is impossible, btw)
I'm going to do that which you fear the most -- ignore you.
