How many times
have I sat here,
alive,
and wondered
what it would feel like
to not be alive?
Why do I waste my aliveness,
as limited as it is,
in this way?
Why do I waste this precious breath,
this precious, continuous
beating of the heart,
pondering what I will be like
without it?
Answer.
Because my mind has an
unquenchable desire
to know
what is can not know..
and this is my demise.

you can gain all the knowledge
you desire,
but what good is knowledge
of you do not apply?
and what good is applying
if you do not feel?
and what good is feeling
if you do not love?

Learn your limitations as a human
And then push past them.
You won't get far, it's true,
But you make magnificent gains
When you muster the courage to question
The origins of your being.
We can only know
That we know nothing.
And in knowing nothing,
We really know something.
And in knowing something,
We indeed know everything.
To admit that you know nothing
Is to discover everything-
And this is the highest degree
Of human wisdom.

maybe
Maybe things get worse
before they get better.
Maybe there's a tiny light
that shines in even
the darkest of days.
Maybe as we grow older
we grow wiser;
acquiring experiences and
knowledge only learned
by the weathering away
of years.
Maybe time heals wounds.
Maybe faith heals the broken.
Maybe questions are the answer.
Maybe love is all you need.
Maybe life is a mystery
not meant to be solved
but meant to be
consciously felt
and personally experienced.
Maybe, just maybe,
uncertainty is beautiful.
