no cut today, you don't get the chance to not even give this a glance
my brain and the beating muscle that resides within my chest cavity are so far from eachother as of late. as i slip further into a world of no belongings or possesions i am forced to do nothing but examine myself, others and my surroundings. it is often interesting and insightful teaching me so much about the metaphysical aspects of life -i have no choice but to examine them as these thoughts and feelings are so close to being all i own. and truthfully i've come to realize even if i did have many many material things that in the end all i would own are my own thoughts. things of this world can disappear in a heart beat- possesions, friends, even family can be gone before you even realize they are completely there. although friends and family definately are part of a seperate listing apart from possesions -a listing that is intagibly important -as possesions truely have no meaning other than the sometimes temporary sentimental values we sometimes assign to them.
but the kicker and point of this rambling is that i wish more often in the past that i had thought more about what i am feeling, that i had taken more time to examine the simple beautiful things in our world, and that i had taken more time to just think about the actions of others that inhabit this place with me. i have discovered more about myself in the past few weeks after observing these things about our world than i have ever in any noticable period of time.
and some of you may ask why i'd tell you this. it is to encourage anyone to look at the world under different lights and conditions just to see if all the rules you have set still apply. and if they dont make some new rules or as i have decided -have no rules
but then that is a rule
the world is home of many a unsolved paradox
