its all just happening. this life is just occurring, one day after another...a sunrise, a sunset, light and dark. are we even connected at all? are we trying to put together these false reinforcements, make things work when they don't. i dont know, and the truth is that no one does. so why do we pretend to?
but on the other hand. we know everything. im just a bunch of contradictions. all of it is. because truth or whatever that is, is unknown. or it's known. whichever you prefer, i suppose.
expression of feelings and thoughts through means other than speaking and showing clearly, can be such an outlet. throw together some notes. brush strokes mixing colors. move your body this way and that. open mouth and vibrating chords. art. it all can be so powerful. it can move you to tears, shake up your world, change how you feel, state how you feel. its scary to me that these processes, everyday, can be reduced (if it can be called "reduced") to neural mechanisms, sensory receptors, perception, all from this wrinkly mass of opaque and slippery flesh. is everything really just that? or is there more?
