Perhaps there even comes a time when it’s no longer too late for anything.

Nothing to lose, the present moment to gain, the integration with long-delayed Now.

People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true.
