Dude: you need to stop sitting on the fence with this.
Christian
But what if I end up regretting it a week later, and then I can't get her back?
Mark
You don't want her back!
Christian
I might!
Mark
So then you can bitch to us for that week about how much you regret it, and we'll be like, "Dude: you've been wanting out of this absurd relationship for the last year," and you'll be like "Oh shit, that's right" and then you can find some new chick who actually likes sex and who doesn’t drag you through a million hoops a day.

I got lost.

Let's go back to the group.

Dani
Nothing means anything! We're just alone. And I felt this presence – like God but not God – and it was telling me this and it was laughing at me.
[tearing up]
Christian
You heard laughing?
Dani
I felt it laughing! I figured it out, that nothing means anything and we're born alone and we die alone, and it was getting pleasure from that.
Christian
Okay: no. We're going back to the friends. You're having a bad trip, and you're thinking you're alone because you went off and you made yourself alone. You just got scared. You have me. Everything’s connected. We're all one. Those are the good things you’re supposed to think about when you trip. We're all unified. Fuck.

Life Stages Compared to Seasons
Christian
Who all sleeps in here?
Pelle
All the younger ones. Until we turn 32. Then we move to the houses.
Josh
Why 32?
Pelle
We think of life like the seasons. You are a child until you're 16, and that is the Spring. At some point we all do our Pilgrimage, and that's between 17 and 32. That's Summer. Then, from 33 to 52, you're of working age: Fall. And finally from 53 to 72, you become a mentor.
Josh
Winter.
Dani
What happens when you turn 72, then?
