We are urged to question and deconstruct all dogmas, if we are to find the Vivid Breath which baffles and is beyond all knowledge.

The moment when it dawns upon you that Joy and Peace are the outcome of absolutely Nothing and No one, then and only then, are you immaculately Free…
Is human nature erred?

What should truly scare them doesn´t.
What should make them rejoice, does.
Only Life Recognizes Life

A young couple entered the cafe. Boy end girl. Our glances met in a reciprocal smile.
They were empathic. Sensitive. Healthily spontaneous and so alive…They acted seamlessly in the ease of the moment. There was no need for words.
Before they left, they asked politely to take a picture with the three of us. Which they did. I am not particularly fond of being photographed, but the photo came out very well.
The encounter took no longer than few seconds. But it really made my day…

Are we here to talk the intelligent talk only?

“Man needs a dream, to put up with reality.” – Sigmund Freud”
Quite true, isn´t it?
Me:
Let´s replace “dream” with “lie”!
It may sound cynical, but just as everyone escapes reality seeking refuge in a dream – in an ideal with other words, which is a sham ultimately – reality has become unbearable.
No matter if Freud, or anyone else has said this – Woody Allen claims for instance that the only way to be happy is to lie to yourself – doesn´t make this statement less insidious.
To “put up with reality” means living in a perpetual distance to life, resisting what is, resisting yourself.
How can life be “easy” if we live in constant distance and resistance to It?
We deny this present moment for an uncertain dream – that´s what we ceaselessly do.
Eventually, resisting yourself means that you don´t want to know…
