To All The People In The Dead Sea:
Like so many pinballs riccocheting from one bumper to the next, only the pinballs are all of us that walk this earth, and the bumpers are the myriad stimuli we encounter. Bound to what we experience via our five senses. Careering from one sensory experience to the next. One reaction to the next. Cause and effect? Cause, cause, cause. Effect. Effect. Effect.
Patrick is correct.
Post-modernism would have you believe that there is no such thing as "the concrete." Everything is bendable and subjective, right? Wrong. Stop pretending that you can explain away all of the times that you flitted to the next bumper as simply being a product of "cause and effect." The indecisiveness. Flaccid conceptions of the self. Half-heartedness does not reach into majesty. It is entirely possible to draw lines that are clear and concrete, but one must be willing to examine the core-ness of themself. Self. Myself. Yourself. Ourselves. There are differences. So many differences that I am only now willing to point to.
Have been timid.
The philosophy that is evolving in my brain is not exclusive. It does not point to people's failings and laugh. It does not point to people's failings and judge. Though there certainly is a nascent definition of this elusive failing. I have fit into this definition! It only asks that one examine, examine. Examine. Not to be scientific or dispassionate. Ossified. Not to be sterile and unhuman. To be alive. Awake. To end the cycle. To stop being a pinball.
we're all connected like a lego set.
There is an entirely new significance there.
