The Sign Of Our Distrust

The exchange of money is the single force that dominates the decisions of those in power.

Wherever there is a great deal of money, there is temptation, corruption, and the seduction of self-interest. Not everyone however has a price. Not everyone is caged by its promise of a comfortable life.

Money exists because of distrust between humans. When we trust and act well, there is no need of it.

Ways of Being

I have two very different ways of being. One is full with feeling and enchantment that I think of as a poetic sensibility. The other is more emotionally detached, rational, restrained. When I work creatively these ways of being intermingle.

I feel most with others and with nature. When I feel most I sense myself most alive. I think most when alone. I prefer not to be alone yet know being so is as vital for my well being as to be with others.

The Limit of Time

I think more about time, its value, and limit. These are difficult ideas.

Whatever I do is placed in time. Every breath I take. Things I hear and see, touch, taste and smell.

However I act is placed in time. Time stores my sense of being alive. Time is where I come to know.

Those things I value most exist outside of time.

When I experience love, compassion and beauty I sense their nature unconstrained, unlimited by time.
