Wind-blown autumn flower
That never lifts its head
Again.”

insecurity is the mother of greed, as cruelty is the memory-if only in the blood-of a time when the test of survival was the ability to kill

I'd like to travel back 542 million years ago to live in the "Garden of Ediacara". A garden "relatively self-contained", made of "self-possessed beings".

Oh how pleasurable such a life, free of complicated interactions and unnecessary conflicts coming from this non-consensual current physicality of mine - yet to still hold such sense complexity.

If God is real, will she please delight me? Make my wish come true?

The chemistry of life revealing fundamental functions within the unique nervous system of octopuses and our ancestors...this makes you rethink intelligence, the architecture of brains and bodies, and how they control curiosity, play, and ingenuity.

Good Pascal reference.

I wish one could be sure the suffering had a loving side

Had you an Hour unengrossed, it would be almost priceless

Is not the distinction of Affection, almost realm enough?

Sorrow almost resents love, it is so inflamed
