I really miss my mp3 player. I haven't listened to Wilco or The Frames ever since. Right now I have I'm not mad, just disappointed stuck in my head. I'd give my pinky finger to have that music back right now.
I think it's really curious how all we feel and experience is created by chemicals in our brain. People can create much of it now. Smell has been divided into it's chemical components that react with the chemicals in our brain to create the smells. It's not exactly perfect yet, but I wonder how much longer it will be until any sense could be created by simply finding the right combination of chemicals. It's kind of fun to imagine everything in front of you, everything on your fingertips, every emotion you experience is a calculation your brain's making. It's just two parts this, and four parts that and the world as we know it is created in our heads by things too small to see.
I wrote another poem. I'm trying to find one that I wrote a while ago. It's very simple but also very beautiful. I've looked over every paper that I've written on, in every box, folder and clipboard but have yet to find it. I'm sure I will though. I never throw any of it out.
Love never fails.
-1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Just another quick reminder that anyone who restricts love in the name of the bible, doesn't understand the bible. It's also a pretty uplifting message which shouldn't be forgotten just because of a few people that have perverted the true message and demented it to points where it's unrecognizable. It's best not to feel anger for them. They most likely feel that love should be restricted because they don't know love. It's best no matter what to forgive them. Forgiveness sets you free.
Life is going really well. I'm content in everything and I'm very satisfied that where I am right now is where I should be. I just can't get too relaxed about things and get lazy because then I get behind on my experiments and explorations, philosophical and otherwise.
On one last note, today I learned how to stitch flowers into fabric. I'm going to try to stitch them onto my backpack and I'm hoping my first experiment at that will turn out decent enough for me have them stitched on Sunday.
Well that's it. I wish you all well and I love you all. I hope you find peace.
