We are mort...These are some my favorite:<br />__________<br />We are mortal manifestations of eternal essences.<br />----we are temporal, everything is. <br />__________<br />Language is based upon meanings assigned to certain symbols.<br />----this reminds me of a paper I wrote for Contemporary Poetry. Juan Luis Martinez, a Latin American Poet, and he wrote (in Spanish): <br />Birds sing in the language of birds,<br />but we hear it in Spanish.<br />(Spanish is an opaque language <br />with fictitious words;<br />whereas the language of birds is free and wordless<br /><br />Language is a fascinating thing. It is never constant but we use it as a way of describing. Isn't that interesting?<br />__________<br />Am I speaking to myself right now?<br />Or am I speaking to you right now?<br />Or are you speaking to yourself right now?<br />__________<br /><br />how can I believe in the world I see with my eyes when I know the feeling of eternity with my eyes closed?<br />__________<br />I need freedom within limits. I need to define those limits for myself.<br />---this is something I'm trying myself to deal with. how do we make those limitations?<br />__________<br />Creations relate us to eachother. To help eachother keep going…humans are social. We FEED off of each other.<br />__________<br />The things that weigh me down are the things that I cant let go of. The more things im carrying around with me, the heavier I am and the less I can move. Both physically and metaphorically speaking. Mentally speaking actually.<br />---- SOOO TRUE. I've gone through a cleansing. The only physical things I own are books, clothes, and physical memories. t was so freeing letting go of things I did not need and things that held me down.<br />__________<br />I honestly feel in my gut these next few years are gonna be HUGE in importance scale for deciding the ‘fate of the world’ and I really just hope to play a somewhat important role in this important time.<br />----I'd love to talk to you about this. <br />__________<br />The meaning of life is to live.<br />--YES<br />__________<br />Your principles.<br />__________<br />every SECOND is another CHANCE<br />__________<br />I think these are beautiful thoughts and realizations you've come by. I sort of see each one as individual poems. The beauty of poems is their concise nature yet potent content. <br /><br /><3 gg--GGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02427152976749098399noreply@blogger.com
