Day 8: About human imperfections

Quantify

.........................................................................................................................................................I can't seem to find what it is that makes quantifying so quenching. .............................................

.................................................................................................................... A thirst for Neat Lines,

...................................................................................................................................... Tidy Rows,

............................................................. Straight Columns...............................................................

Perfect Squares, .............................................................................................................................

............................................................. Smooth Surfaces, .............................................................

.............................................................................................................................. And Soft Edges.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

What is it that makes the delicacy of being unchallenged so enticing? ........................................

Needing nothing to exist if it cannot be...........................................................................................

suffocated into the confines of minimal understanding. .................................................................

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

............................................................................................................................................. Touch.

......................................................................................................................................... And See.

........................................................................................................................................ And Hear

....................................................................................................................................... And Taste

...................................................................................................................................... And Smell.

...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"Feel" being nothing but perception, ..............................................................................................

We rationalize away.........................................................................................................................

anything beyond simple sensations. ..............................................................................................

.........................................................................................................................................................

Fearful of deeper understandings, .................................................................................................

or none at all. .................................................................................................................................

.........................................................................................................................................................

... What is it that makes Beyond......................................................................................................

so treacherous? ..............................................................................................................................

---

..................................................................... Beyond......................................................................

........................................................... your understanding, ...........................................................

......................................................... I hold onto my identity, .........................................................

.................................................................... my mind, ....................................................................

.................................................................... my heart. ....................................................................

---

Beyond your understanding, ..........................................................................................................

..................................................................... It exists. .....................................................................

.........................................................................................................................................................
