The restrictions of this world
To ignore the pleasures
Of this empty humanity
I wanted not to be a body
In this raw freedom
Not to listen to the echo
Of these lonely walls
I wanted not to have to see
The gloating faces of victory
The sun darkening
In the obscured secrecy
I wanted to feel lightly
Nothing want
Only to be

This is me a couple of months ago, and I know this is gonna sound cliche, but I had to go through that to make me into who I am today. It was hell, but it all turned out alright.

Have been reading a book on the history of Zen...sounds like that is what you are looking for...I have fought a darkness for years I have found the light within.

...I wonder if that is what it feels like to be a bird in flight...rather, an eagle soaring...actually, a vulture in flight, cause they never have to flap their wings...maybe that it what it is like on the other side of the veil...
...once again, I smile...

...once again, I smile..."

...the poem spoke to me of freedom...escaping Earth's heavy, grasping, sucking gravity...my mind immediately jumped to birds because of the freedom flight offers...it does the best job of battling gravity...then I jumped to hawks and eagles because they can soar and that requires so much less effort...then my mind went further, eagles and hawks only soar for short distances, vultures soar for hours...that seems to make the vulture the creature that is best able to escape the heavy, grasping, sucking gravity of Earth...should have used the word, condor...sounds better...but, really, look past a vulture's face into its eyes...NO CAN DO RON...yeah, you're right...they're so ugly they're cute...they come the closest to escaping...but, they don't...and thus the 'veil...'...death...that's probably the only way we will ever escape this body...till then, I'd rather be a vulture...er, condor...
...I'm smiling...regardless of the topic, the rain, the snow, the sleet or hail, the words you choose and the way you phrase them relaxes my cheeks...I find myself smiling...there may be tears, a twinge in my chest or furrowed brow, but my cheeks are usually relaxed and softly smiling...
...this is the long version...but, glad to provide it...
