Connecting the dots…

  • QOTD

    And yet if you look at a society
    that sings and dances as a
    regular thing, it’s not that it has
    an effect on their life– it is their
    life.

    Gary Snyder

    The beginning of knowledge is
    the discovery of something we
    do not understand

    When you look at a corpse you
    can always sense your own
    breath better.

  • Quote of the day

    Drink your tea slowly and
    reverently, as if it is the axis on
    which the world earth revolves
    slowly, evenly, without rushing
    toward the future.

  • Looking outside again

    Looking outside again
    I find myself looking outside again,
    outwards into the world
    for words to describe what I feel,
    What I want to express.
    After a flurry of searching, of grasping
    At the voices of others,
    The articulation, the timbre, the pace,
    I stop –
    Wait.

    Why others? Why not me?
    Surely I can pluck the words
    Ripe from the branching neurons
    of my blooming mind-orchard?
    Am I not best suited to tease
    The sparks breaching my subconscious
    Higher into the light,
    to sculpt and mould them into
    The form of my fancy?

    No,
    I don’t need to go outside to play.

     I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.
