....

I saw a homeless man sitting in the snow by the river today. It happened so fast, I was riding the train and just as it went over a bridge I saw him, just for a glimpse. He had a long beard, he may have been rocking back and forth in a chill. He was shrouded and hidden in a forest of willow. The water underneath him frozen. There might have been someone he was talking to, but I didn't see. The glimpse passed so quickly.

A thought and fire

-A thought

Understand that there is good and bad. What is good is right and what is bad is wrong (Marcus Aurelius). In this sense you must not muddle with a space in between, there is no grey area. Ones actions in life reflect his persona in a moment, good or bad. Thus, your actions are a constant reveal of the struggle you face everyday. However they will not determine you spiritually, unless you let them.


-Fire

Fire is a destructive force that in nature serves a cleansing purpose; for example, the eradication of pine beetles or elimination of decay. It is the fault of humanity that people are burned alive.

4b5tr4ct10n part 3

Dear user, please do not be alarmed as we separate your body from your nervous system. Momentarily you will entered into a program control matrix where you will experience the pleasant smell of toast with cooking eggs and bacon. This sense has been chosen in effort to make you feel comfortable. Iffffff you do not enjoy the smell of a comforting breakfast than you have only to think and the program will accommodate any sense you desire. The experience will last for about 2 minutes while your body is prepared for cremation at which time your memories will be transferred into a collective consciousness. Your personality will be lost. There will be no more need for sustenance or subsistence. YouYOuyouYUoyou will no longer require emotion. Enjoy your enlightenment and have a pleasant emulsion.

Disappear


To disappear isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Individuals need there own time to meditate and contemplate life to its fullest. There’s nothing wrong with watching a TV show you like, playing a video game for a half hour or a taking in a movie you love. However, it is when we cross a boundary into the realm of addiction and numbing that “me time” goes too far. There’s a line where one passes from enjoyment to disconnection.

Sometimes a person needs to just sit and do nothing. Sometimes a person needs to realize that doing nothing isn’t bad. Sometimes a person needs to realize that sitting on their computer or indulging in video games isn’t doing nothing.

There is a realm of addiction where people enter to free themselves from the daily world. When someone shoots crack, or plays a video game for the better part of the day… All humans try to disconnect in someway. All the magic is being stolen away, sucked into little black holes of our own creation.

Doing nothing, in order to clear your head, or in order to fill it. To disappear into ones own mind. To think. To mediate. To meditate. To contemplate. To convert. To need. To love. To live. To hurt. To heal. To cry. To try. To realize.

To breathe…

To breathe in life anew, free of the shackles of boredom and the id. Infinite patience isn’t achievable by a human standard; but humans can learn to accept silence, darkness or emptiness with joy. One may go and wander a park, sit on a bench, listen and meditate the bird’s songs. Heed a child cooing. Ponder the sound of traffic. Excite at the sound of rustling leaves. Close one’s eyes and enjoy the dark.

Disappear into the oblivion that is the world. Embrace it, and become it. Realize that you are alone. Realize that you are never alone. Embrace existence, both in your world and the real world.

Don’t worry though, everyone makes mistakes.
