Lets bring it to its final end

One day there'll be a place for us.

Moving on.
Breaking habits or being shown the value of something to move towards.
keep your eye on the rising sun/son.
Morning is breaking.
the distance.
now leaving
across the sky.


Discipline.
I can do what I want.
So what do I want.
The commitment emerges and freedom subsides.
You stupid shits who think freedom is forever.
It exists only to come back from
the most important part of freedom is the return to the body.

the unlikeliest of places

Sometimes the stars are in line and the lightning strikes
and the meaning is unescapeable
albiet a keen perception can see some things coming down the pipeline, to lose touch of that vision and give up on love
is to be human today.
When I walked away, I didn't mean for love to follow.
I didn't mean to have this happen today
and in the unlikeliest of places.

On Love

He who knows nothing, loves nothing. He who can do nothing understands nothing. He who understands nothing is worthless. But he who understands also loves, notices, sees... The more knowledge is inherent in a thing, the greater the love... Anyone who imagines that all fruits ripen at the same time as the strawberries knows nothing about grapes.
-Paracelsus

Is love an art? Then it requires knowledge and effort. Or is love a pleasant sensation, which to experience is a matter of chance, something one "falls into" if one is lucky? This little book is based on the former premise, while undoubtedly the majority of today believe in the latter.

This peculiear attitude is based on several premises which either singly or combined tend to uphold it. Most people see the problem of love primarily as that of 'being loved', rather than that of 'loving', of one's capacity to love. Hence the problem to them is how to be loved, how to be lovable.
- Erich Fromm
The Art of Loving

A Reflection of One's Contemplative Attitude

Le que l'homme a de plus profound, c'est sa peau
--Paul Valery

Bad literature belittles, but the true one reveals to us the regions as yet uncharted of the soul... One must never be afraid of going too far, for truth still and always lies beyond.
--Marcel Proust
Letter to Ernst Robert Curtains
Sept. 18, 1922

"if he cannot build his work as a cathedral, he will build simply like a dress.
The essential elements of a work of art are often hidden within the warp and the woof of the material.

the description associated with M~ conforms to the demands of his... conferring upon her the vague contours of someone seen amidst many, as in the manner of an illustration. Not until he begins to anticipate her in his imagination, will she detach herself from the many and become an individual.

Watching the Swimmer

Aristotle claims 3 different types of change:

Locomotion- change in position
Growth- change in quantity
Alteration- change in quality


When we desire changes in our lives, what do we expect it to be like when the change occurs? and how do we expect that we will be different in the occurance of an external change?

Is there any health in intelligence above the energy of the blind groping worm?

Authenticity refers to self-knowledge and to making choices that are congruent with that self-knowdge.

"Do I REALLY feel this way or only if I think its safe... and then, even I worry about the wrong things sometimes.
why?
To continue in being honest as a priority.
This is the way I feel. This is the problem... to think that I'll always have the presence of mind to acheive the level of Love that I wish to know.
All the torches are out."
-No, You Shut Up

I remember years ago someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love. I did.
-Shontelle

Sometimes life is like surgery while awake.

We sail within a vast sphere, ever drifting in uncertainty, driven from end to end.
-Pascal

A way a lone a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to hot the Castle and Environs. -Joyce

Be a full bucket pulled up the dark way
of a well, then lifted out into the light.
-Rumi

I am so small I can barely be seen.
How can this great love be inside me?
Look at your eyes. They are small,
but they see enormous things.
-Rumi

Lord, I believe; help my unbelief
Mark 9:24

Sweet are the use of adversity;
which, like the toad, ugly and venomous,
wears yet a precious jewel in his head
And this our life exempt from public haunt
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones and good in everything.
-Shakespeare
