Mike,
We've known each other for 13 years in real life and longer online.
You know my beliefs.
People are free to mull over their own philosophy but actually, the pursuit of PuristS does not need to involve excess of the materialistic.
If we pursue perfection in an imperfect world, only one may suffice.
I've been asked which one watch would I keep until the end. I actually have one although the title of The ONE has changed a few times over the decades.
Still, there is but ONE......but it may be "that which is hidden" like meditation.
Regards,
MTF
