"If 1/3 =0.333... and 3/3=1 and 0.333..x3 = 0.999... then 0.999...=1. The infinite and the defined are the same. The Walking Willow is the infinite. Older than we know. Larger and more twisted than we can comprehend. Infinite. Yet we perceive Him as a constant. Our minds hurt with the strain, but we do it. The mathematics make no sense in a practical sense, yet they are true, and The Walking Willow is the proof."
