My daily aphorisms. Reflections on life, death, beauty, change, love, happiness, etc., written in a poetic and whimsical style.
Intuition NP?
ReplyDeleteCheers, ic
One lives a complex code authored by one's genes and the society. Some are strong enough to break the mould too.
ReplyDeleteThat's my motto.............just live.
ReplyDeleteAh, and there's me thinking I'd lost the instructions.
ReplyDeleteWe are human beings not human doings.
ReplyDeleteI like the "just do it" feel in here; to not be paralyzed by the not knowing. That said, I think living can lead to a kind of knowing, even if it's just a gut feeling that we're on a path that's right for us.
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as being able to describe life. So yeah, makes sense.
ReplyDeleteAs long as we are breathing, we are living. We don’t need to know “how” to live, we just do it. To live is to be.
ReplyDeleteI like Rum-Punch Drunk's comment about being human not human doings.
ReplyDeleteExactly. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual. We simply have to wing it.
ReplyDeleteNice one.
ReplyDeleteWe all chose the best paths we can for ourselves, and it's always on the fly.
right
