  • Pondering

    Nothing breeds motivation like necessity.

  • Notes and things and such like that

  • Preposterous Ponderings: Seeking and Living

    Do not search for meaning,

life has no meaning,

seek a worthwhile life.

  • Reworked: Entropy and the Audacity of Comfort

    You are in danger of living a life so comfortable and soft, that you will die without ever realizing your true potential.

    David Goggins

    The lies we tell ourselves become the excuses we use to placate our own insecurities.

    Embrace change, adversity, and overcome the circumstances. The “obstacle is the way” (Ryan Holiday), because quite simply, that is life. There is no part of life that isn’t the obstacle itself, no matter what lies we tell ourselves.

    As humans, we have the audacity to expect comfort, when reality proves time and again that we are promised nothing but the natural systems of entropy that existed long before and will exist long after us.

  • painfully bliss

    Ultimately,
we imagined so many things
novelty outran intention:

Power became currency,
battle
our true recreation,
and regarded old aesthetics
to ease the lens of time.

How painfully ignorant to have
died in honor
of forgetting how to live.

  • Balancing act

    Discovery lies on the other end of a precarious beam with escapism.

  • Memento

    Remember you die, so you do not forget to live.

  • IMO: mentorship

    Good advice leads to more questions than answers.

  • Solemn

    If solidarity were enough,
    I would write until my fingers bleed.
    No.
    If it made a difference, I would cry,
    for every broken heart
    and soul.
    No.

    I am speechless, I am distant,
    but I am not silent
    and that is not enough.
    No.
    More.
