the flawed everything

It wasn't the idea itself, that was a good one. No, it was the perpetrator of the idea that made everyone want to vomit. We knew that this person would be a not so humble human being with such newly granted power. We knew this new found element would set things in motion that would ultimately harm the lot of us. I think the process of selection is itself flawed. The way in which it is determined that such and such should have this and this is purely subjective in nature. If there is an object, I can't find it. We can sling ideas around all day long. We can chit and chat about the flawed everything and still get older and become frail as the new generation takes the reigns of predetermined determination. Give someone power and watch him anesthetize himself within herself.

get to know

Never take the time in life to fear the unknown. It is a constant that cannot be speculated upon by even the most studious of students. The unknown is a vast cavern, an empty vessel. It is wider than our imaginations and it is more relevant than we could possibly conceive. The unknown is left to the spectators who view from on high. They have no control and never wanted it. From their eyes, we all look silly; spinning around and being critical of one another when in fact we need to be less critical and more universally loving to those we do not understand. It is people that make up our world and there are planty of them. Each group has a two-fold purpose: First, they must get to know a new culture and second, they must maintain their own culture. We must not be afraid of the unknown, we must embrace it and cherish it in order to understand it. Let us get through our critical selves before we try and understand the unknowable. 98.2

coming to be

We borrow from the times and we weave new patterns that signify our time now. The fabric may be the same, but the salt content of each design is dramatically less. This is significant because without the necessary heart that goes into real creation there is a lack of meaning even in its usefullness. Our time now is significant in many ways; the difference is our pulse is weaker now than at any other time and it is only going to get worse. This is not anyone's fault in particular. It is the result of itself.
New times are coming with no fabric from which to load and retrieve from little boxes and bags. No examples can be followed or referred to in the coming times of discontent. But there will be one emerging presence. Through him all good things will be coming even though the process was set in motion long ago by very different people. Timing is everything someone said, and we will see just how true those words come to be in the not too distant future.
