I need time...


Please help me fill my dark gaps when I'm lost
Please give me time to live what I don't understand just yet,
Because time is necessary, time makes you calmer and wiser...
Understand that we don't always understand everything... we just feel it.
Time and company, kisses, hugs, company, that's all I need.
...
And eventually I will need lots of accepting and understanding too...

WISH ME STRENGTH - A tribute to self control and realization




Wish me strength
Hold my lungs asleep, one bite and a splash of freezing water
Time is scarce and the goal is reachable but so, so far away.
The time for you to take a step(further and/ or backwards) is running out
You gasp for air but all you get is smoke
You grasp for love but all you get is loneliness, bad decisions and recklessness...

Wish me clearness
Of all the things you could do...
If you keep on flowing in other's people rivers, yours will always be dry
If you keep on running with a blind in your eyes you'll keep on falling,
you'll keep on repeating the same mistakes.
Wave the fog away, leave it all at peace, let is go away, slow but steady.
Convince you're self that you are sane and able.

In order for one to feel at peace with themselves, they need to be alone often. There as to be times of loneliness so you can have those moments of bliss with others. There has to be times of study in order to put at practice all the obtained wiseness. You can't always follow other's around and still expect them to be the ones to come to you when you least expect, when you need them the most. You can't always move around doing this and that with supersonic speed and still expect to be able to easily slow down, be patient and build steady relationships, communications, conceptualizations, ideals and projects.
A lifetime of acts and decisions according to your ideals is an illusion, there will always be exceptions, there will always be times of weakness. What counts is what you do afterwards, after you decide on stopping. It's not easy... that I can say, you get addicted to unhealthy behaviors, these are often the most comfortable ones. You get you conscious dirty as a trashcan but you can't help it for a while... you feed of it like a leech, obtaining all the guilty pleasure you can get from it, until the last poisoned drop of ecstasy.

On surpassing time itself

    Lately I haven't had much time on my own. My imagination and my ability to conceptualize are numb lately, that makes me a little bit worried that I may turn the autopilot mode on more that I should. Stranger, friend, you should be sure that you are leading your live the way you want if you want to feel visible in this world. It's hard to feel visible isn't it? We are so, so little...

    Everything is so fragile and impermanent that we must be present at almost all times. We are not immortal, we are forgettable, all of us. In a few years who will remember us? Immortality (metaphorical speaking, of course) is an illusion. We as individuals are mortal, so mortal and fragile that everything seems to us scary and gigantic. But as a species, we can be immortal. Where will we be in a thousand years...? It is up to us to discover some more paths to our successors. Will we be good ancestors? Humanity as a species has the ability to reach several conscience, mind and emotional states that will allow us to ... I don't even know, my brain is tired (as I'm writing this at 3am, with a weak long of badly slept nights behind me)... I have all this images, separate words, concepts and sounds in my mind - all mixed together in a noisy amount of feelings and sensations- that I can't quite put to words right now (and sometimes not even in my best days).

    Today I read some essays from a webs-site/potential millennium institution called The Long Now, they've been working on a project called the 10, 000 year clock. The clocks are to be installed in several deserted locations (mainly mountains), with melodies (all different from each other) it marks the time at a long term distance...

"Serve the long view,
Reward patience
Mind mythic depth
Ally with competition
Take no sides
Leverage longevity"
But live in the now...
