 why it seems that words have the ultimate purpose of filling the voids our understanding cannot. 

Is it a need, I wonder, to communicate, or is it a need to release? or being known, understood, visible, present and existent. 

who is listening, who do we write this for, who do we talk for and why are we choosing our words from a careless mind if what we are trying to say is sacred?

As words are produced and swarm our minds in mostly crafted rules and formulas, the business of putting them together and releasing them somehow takes over the un-defined feeling or emotion that perhaps initiated such need…it seems.

Words are not personal, they are words.

The source of the need to communicate and for what purpose is where the esprit lies. 

For stories, anecdotes, tales, events and memories are the vehicle that whether we know it or not is being chosen to transmit a feeling, a deeper meaning, a message that needs not to be encoded with details but felt as it was experienced. 

Writing has been for the most part the redemption of a life through imagination. The refuge from an uncontrollable reality and eventually became the excuse to hold on to the only place where there’s control and fabricated peace. 

The indeterminable invisibility of shielding behind words. The unknown mystery of all things possible through hilations of phrases. The unilateral conversation of a life lived in a head, slightly to the left.

The all inclusive  voyage that is available any time of the year. The poetic exercise stretched with no one. The ‘regard’ of  the self  through the perspective of words as they leave us. 

a life written is not a life lived.

I think I understand why the sailors decided not to loose their north.

There is the guiding star that they could not see if they drifted south

and being lost at sea had no knowable outcome,

except that for some time, the edge would be eventually inminent

and the fall into the void of time and space

carried no poetic tone.

Looking up and give such meaning to glowing mostly already dead

traces of that which was

gave the certainty of a non lost future

the stillness of knowing that there is a way back home

“Mystery will control you, knowledge will make you the controller. Mystery will possess you. You cannot possess the mysterious; it is so vast and your hands are so small. It is so infinite, you cannot possess it, you will have to be possessed by it — and that is the fear.

Knowledge you can possess, it is so trivial; knowledge you can control. This temptation of the mind to reduce every wonder, every mystery, to a question, is basically fear-oriented. We are afraid, afraid of the tremendousness of life, of this incredible existence. We are afraid.

Out of fear we create some small knowledge around ourselves as a protection, as an armor, as a defense.”

“Eternity it’s not a long time, nor it is in the future or in a distant dimension; the experience of eternity it’s in the whole-ness of the here & now when it’s lived transcendentally, when the divine is recognized within & therefore in everything, especially in someone else.” —
