congestion gestures

tonight I took a risk and went to a party.

It was alright until it felt like a swarm of bees attacked my ears with unpleasant sounds and undesired presence. junk. motionless I stood, observing what seemed to be like a movie set, one I didn't want to be a part of. It was time to go.

When feeling too congested, remove yourself from time.

ze beginning

I saw Inception today, a mind wrenching film that leaves you with a little question in the end. Don't ya just adore those questions you will never know the answer to? I do.

I guess I could recommend that you go see it, but I won't tell you what to do.

Universal Mind

Saturn
Divine
And believing,
When the sun is one with the stars,
When we focus our eyes
Beyond what we see,
Beyond what that could even mean.

a tree is still a tree to me,
or a table to you
or running out of fingers to
count grains of sand,
knowing they are the same.

like looking out into the ocean,
never seeing an end
a limitation for the eye from the
horizon line that meets the sky,
to go further into the abyss.
And we still know,
Truth
Rings.

There are many instances in life where one may find themselves at a fork in the road, questioning which path to take. This goes for anything and everything. However, when it comes to a certain experience where an explanation cannot be found, the only alternative is to simply laugh.

Today was interesting. To paint a simple setting, it was a beautiful sunny, warm day. Perfect day for a bike ride, which is exactly what I did with my good friend Cori :] We had ice cream sundaes at an adorable cafe and we were off to spend the rest of the day at a nearby creek. On the way we stopped at what appeared to be a store, with a handwritten sign above the door that read: 99 cent hot- spot. The minute we walked in the most unwelcoming stench entered our nostrils, but mutually we decided to give this place a chance. "Place" would be a common word to call it, but it literally felt as if we walked into the shop owner's home. Junk piled everywhere, couches, clothes with no access to even if you were curious. With little room to move we came to a stop almost instantly and noticed cigarette butts on a table to the right. All of this was going on within a matter of minutes. We casually left, silence continued until Cori perfectly commented, "I don't know what just happened."

The creek didn't do any better. On our way out we found a random cross with flowers, which anyone would naturally assume would represent the death of someone or something. Who knows.

As we said our goodbyes, before parting we noticed an outdoor brick stove-like furnace with a laundry basket underneath. An interesting end to an interesting day. I can only hope that more of these questionable experiences come around because I know they are lurking around corners just waiting to hear me laugh and smile, I mean isn't that what life is all about?

For a day like today

Things shouldn't have turned out as they did. The signs were there, but a fully grasped understanding of it was not fulfilled. To conclude another day down the drain would be the worst move. However, to embrace what has been given would inherit a mere 50% more to the plate for the taking. If life were lived this way, perhaps there would be a collective awareness and a grant for pure freedom to those who have a thirst for learning.
