I have oft touted the POWER of "The Instinct for Self-Preservation" -- it is something of DIVINE Power since its goal is the continuation of whatever DNA strands the "host" has inherited . In Salinger's instance; great fucking WRITING genes . {{{I should rwite, >> Gifted<< ,, `and then some` . }}}
We must not fail to recognize that Salinger's Focus is a MANIFESTATION of "The Instinct for Self-Preservation" . Salinger, CLEARLY, was not ready to "...go gently into that good night". No and FUCK NO : he chose, instead, >>> LIFE<<< , and in so doing relied upon his Writing Vision, to support and maintain his indomitable WILL to SURVIVE that he may conclude his Work under entirely OPPOSITE Conditions .
It may be stated that the Instinct actually ignited his Focus--- that Instinct was responsible for him to access his {dare I say} LOVE for Life VIA the Written Word . Writing as LIFE --- anyone see THAT coming ???? Not me, that's for sure .
