Deliverance

When I search for "deliverance", a movie, an album, religion, exorcism... all come up. The word seems to be about popular culture, spirituality and ghost stories. The song I chose seems to support this view.

But personally, I have experienced a sort of liberation, reboot and inspiration. And it does not feel popular, ecumenical or frightening. In fact, it's become normal and slightly mundane. Yet I also feel enthusiastic and hopeful: like I've already arrived at the destination even before setting off. This is because the inspiration is not about the achievement or failure but the learning, the building and the celebration.

"One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose sight, for a very long time, of the shore."
