I have struggled with life and people in this life and time... not sure why...
but it perhaps may be related to this question that I've never been able to voice yet now I suppose it emerges and I think it is revalent.

What is the reason and purpose of our haste and speed. aka The speed of life?
Does anyone know why we are in such a hurry?
Did I miss something?
Is something or someone chasing us?
Are we in any particular hurry to get some where?
I don't understand.
I don't think I've ever understood so hmmmmm
Not sure....???
or is it simply "speed for speeds sake"?
I couldn't even find the time to find this question. It seems you're born to this world and get swept up in the human race and pace yet there have been moments in nature when I've been able to see or sense another pace and world although I never seem to have enough time to really get to know and understand that one either.
Seem to get or be caught in the middle at times. Up to speed of what? Life? Death? Time? Money?
Hmmmm well maybe its just me... but
Its just this nature place or nature time seems to make a little more sense and have a little more meaning for me than this human one. I guess though they each have there moments but the speed seems to effect the depth somehow. This human pace seems to lack the depth. Just skimming over the surface not really getting to "know" or understand any thing to "grok" much.

Ah well

carry on

OPEN LETTER TO THE EARTH

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

JANUARY 01,2006

Well hello everyone, hope your day is going well.
Strange world aye?
Well it seems that it may be that Humanity is at war
with itself because maybe there's nothing better to do
and war, drugs and sex, is good for business.

Well that may be the case and war may be fun and interesting
but to myself it is a sorry state of affairs. i.e.: (Let them eat cake)

It would seem then that some people may just have to much money, power and time on their hands then, oh my...!

I can accept perhaps that fighting, poverty, disease, hunger, homelessness, pollution, global warming, loneliness, the elements, prejudice, racism, ignorance, addictions, hatred, greed and such may not be as much fun or as interesting as war but really if you have to and want to war then please do it on the moon and not on the planet because it is interfering with those trying to really accomplish something constructive and meaningful
on the planet.

Thank you for your time
and consideration to this matter...

What seems to be occuring on the planet
is an uncontained and unsustainable
global stigmergy.  More >

a concept
or conception

To be transborn anew

thus awaken all sad dreamers

and for but a moment smile

and behold a another dawning day.

And the seasons they go round and round...

As they do.  More >

To Live...

Ah bitter sorrow...
To let fall those tears of anguish, despair
and heart break and accept those sad truths
that in this life doth befall us.

Yet time that comical trickster, doth lend its
aid after itself and comfort us and lift the
heart anew to new joys and songs perhaps.

Alas who can rightly muse

of what the day and morrow doth and may bring.

More tears, to have the courage to let fall perchance to

comfort and ease our hearts burden in some strange and winding

way...

Or maybe a truthful and honest smile that can melt some

hardened heart

Per chance per chance

To live per chance to live...
