Conventional knowledge is death
to our souls, and it is not really ours.

We must become ignorant
of what we've been taught,
and be, instead, bewildered.

Run from what's profitable and comfortable.
If you drink those liqueurs, you'll spill
the spring water of your real life.

Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live.
Destroy your reputation.
Be notorious.

I have tried prudent planning
long enough. From now
on, I'll be mad.

~RUMI, "A Spider Playing in the House"

A Little Song...

Your ID poem [song?] is... strangely telling of my recent life circumstances. I like that...
:iconlost-capella:
The poem was written in the 1200s, by the Persian poet Rumi. Isn't it refreshing to be able to relate to someone across the ages?

Some things never change... I never wanted to live a transient lifestyle. I'm too materialistic for that. I love having stuff. But I've found a way to balance it out. I can live a sort of bohemian semi-nomadic lifestyle, while also being a total consumer whore. Although somehow, I doubt Rumi was suggesting such a thing... ah, well.
:iconlost-capella:
You gotta take what you can from poems and leave the rest. That's what I think anyway. You can never know what the poet really meant.

As a wise man once said [before the "special edition" was released], "Many of the truths we cling to depend on our own point of view."

Man, I haven't seen your photos since some blog long ago. These are really great. Love the way you frame the world.
:iconlost-capella:
Wow, hi Kim! Thanks a bunch! I really enjoy taking photos--it's a great break from writing! ^_^ Cheers!
