It's one of those gray days...

"Even while each living thing is said to be alive and to be the same -- as a person is said to be the same from childhood till he turns into an old man-- even then he never consists of the same things, though he is called the same, but he is always being renewed and in other respects passing away, in his hair and flesh and bones and blood and his entire body. And it's not just in his body but in his soul too, for none of his manners, customs, opinions, desires, pleasures, pains, or fears ever remains the same, but some are coming to be in him while while others are passing away. And what is still far stranger than that is that not only does on branch of knowledge come to be in us while and pass away and that we are never the same even in respect of our knowledge, but that each single piece of knowledge has the same fate. For what we call studying exists because knowledge is leaving us, because forgetting is the departure of knowledge while studying puts back a fresh memory in place of what went away, thereby preserving a piece of knowledge so that it seems to be the same. And in that way everything mortal is preserved, not like the divine, by always being the same in every way, but because what is departing and aging leaves behind something new, something such as it had been. By this device what is mortal shares in immortality, whether it is a body or anything else, while the immortal has another way. So don't be surprised if everything naturally values its own offspring, because it is for the sake of immortality that everything shows this zeal, which is Love."

BILINGUAL INTRASPEAKER VARITION OF JAPANESE-AMERICAN SUBJECT

"I find myself suddenly realizing that I have spent half the period going over visually in my head locations around my hometown and surrounding countryside, a place I mind remind you I haven't lived for years now nor ever will again, where one could park a car overnight and sleep safely, without the chance of being harassed by local law-officials. This acknowledgment that I was for some reason using my hometown as my animus centrum despite the obvious fact that I currently live thousands of miles away from said location is a strange bit of information that leads one to believe that one can have a home."


"That we are unable to comprehend perfection was known, so the paradox was used to illustrate the concept of God as an absolute truth, even though to us everything can be doubted by one or more of our senses and by doubting everything there can be no absolute truth, even God. So, by reciprocating this argument, since our senses can doubt everything they cannot be trusted, since god is perfect, thus proving that God exists."


"Humanity, generally speaking, is too petty to step above their current interests to progress as a race. Caught between natural law and our flawed "Human Law", creating disharmony and destruction. If awareness is limited to our own tiny node of the circuit board how can people act in unison with the universal clock and make it tick and tock? Collectively surmising existence beyond our own minuscule senses can enable a person to act in accordance with natural law, not as an ignorant 'ANIMAL' but and an enlightened being. If you keep attempting to quantify and define eberything how can you appreciate the actual experience? If the woman is the earth then we are the sperm, racing towards conception."

There's amniotic fluid all over my carpet.
