XII. 8

Internet is a swamp. Never that deep but that isn't what gets you. It is a place for information, but not wisdom. Making friends with words and symbols isn't new. It is a privilege to be able to inflate your feebleness into something meaningful. Big things are starting to become meaningless. Small things are getting due credit. Lost souls are reconnecting, the futility of their attempts can take a back seat for now. They were never too far. 

Memory and Destiny

Graveland - Memory and Destiny

this album is epic .. enough said for now but might put up a review later ... 

XI. Existence

Going nowhere is a common term to denote a lack of progress or stagnancy. But really, no one goes to this place called "nowhere". Everyone/thing must be going somewhere. There is a destination for all of us, as persons/organisms and as a collection of atoms and molecules - we will  keep traveling. Nowhere is a logical fallacy. It is a place that doesn't exist.

Being a nobody is not an option. I may not be a great or a famous one - but I will surely not be a "nobody".  My actions don't count as nothing/ zero. I am an entity and my existence is real. It doesn't matter how I exist, only thing that matters is that I exist, even to the point when "I" simply becomes irrelevant.

We already are somewhere and we already are somebody - we may not exist in these forms in another 100 years but we will still exist someway or the other - as sub-atomic particles, atoms, molecules, carbon etc. Existence is so enormous - we can hardly see it beyond our little bodies, our little lives and our little world. Existence is not limited to consciousness or "life" as we understand it . Life is pretty insignificant so to speak - there are things more basic that life. The universe is much more than alive - its buzzing with activity. Its changing in a way that change is the only thing constant- what a wonderful idea !

knowing all this, yet I'm just beginning to find out .........something I can never fathom in its entirety, in my entirety, but  I am a part of it and am happy to be ..............

X. Mask of Sanity

We all live our lives either trying to be act civil. Often we wear this mask of sanity that hides our true feelings. No matter what, we are recommended not to take off this mask. But sometimes it does slip off showing the true side of us. Seeing someone's madness can help to know the person better. The ugly side is as important as the pretty side.

Being in an altered state of consciousness does reveal this truth. But the rules still remain the same..

IX. perspective

man - so you're a lesbian, tell me why do you hate guys?

lesbian - it is they who hated me first..for being what I am

It is just a matter of perspective, eh ??

VIII. Great Expectations

Disappointments can be prevented if you do not expect anything out of anything/anyone. Must be thankful to whatever you have- the air you breathe, the water you drink, the rain, the clouds, parents, friends. Great expectations can be castles made of sand. Disappointment is an unnecessary trouble. You are fortunate if you can realize this... .
