Array ( [sid] => 171358 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I KNOW WHY A RAVEN IS LIKE A WRITING DESK [time] => 2012-03-17 14:17:36 [hometext] => THE ANSWER WE ALL SEARCH FOR IS REVEALED [bodytext] => The Mad Hatter asks alice
" why is a raven like a writing desk?"
Alice never works out the answer
and the Mad Hatter hasnt a clue

But the answer is plain sight in view
deep down we all know
the answer true

Alice questions "am i mad"
her father says
"Quite mad, but do you know?
all of the best people are"

So the real question is why are the best people mad
And the answer is because they think the impossible
and try to answer the impossible
they think outside of the box
regardless .

So the riddle is solved
the answer is simply the trying to work out the answer
being tenacious
thinking six impossible things before breakfast
and feeling full for the rest of the day
being absolute
as Absolum is
evolving from a caterpillar
evolving
forever moving forward
becoming all that we can be
with no predjudice
becoming
whole
becoming more

Question everything regardless
listen to everything regardless
and weigh up all possibillities
and never be held back by negative thinking
dont be a jack in the box
live outside the box
and you become a raven like a writing desk
create history
and be the best

as all of the best people are
mad as hatters
and you know that you are
mad as the rest
but the best by far
a writing desk raven is what you are

SHINING BRIGHTLY
JUST LIKE A
STAR

pivotal line for me,'live outside the box,'maybe whatt I can relate to most,a lovely all encompassing reason to be as mad as we are and be happy with that,moving on from judging ourselves and empowering ourselves.Writing that brings self acceptance is powerful and leaves a wonderful calm and this you have brought with warmth and heart.
