While describing the "murder" of partying crows, I couldn't get the vivid image of a jet black, glinting crow's eye out of my head. In fact that's what I had in mind the entire time I wrote this chapter:

The theme of light being reflected out of darkness. In the glinting eyes of a crow.

AFTER writing the part with Paul's revelations and the crows' departure, AFTER writing everything but the very end, an odd impulse landed to visit a particular website I hadn't been to in a good while. And right there, front and center of that website, was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHc4NqA07sE

I've been 5 weeks behind on my reading and finally caught up to this recent post today... only to discover, once again, the synchronistic timing of this chapter which perfectly reflects the very themes I've been pondering and actively working with in my own life. I feel a special connection to crows and they happened to be cawing outside my window as I read. They are said to be harbingers of mystery, the secret keepers of esoteric wisdom who speak in ways we cannot fathom with the mind. The mind can follow the breadcrumbs, but the heart is where the treasure is found. <3
