a thing of beauty
is a joy indeed
said a wise man quite a while ago. One thing I believe in , and it gives me joy.
That life abounds in beauty . All around, so much of it. I won't throw you the
old line about "you have to know where to find it", which is misleading.
Instead, I'll try to work my way around to it slyly, indirectly.
Healthier people notice it better. you lose the ability to see it as you grow older
- usually.
abstraction is a sign of advanced thinking . the ability to abstract something
- convert it into a blackbox - helps you think bigger.
there's the individual with the bundle of senses and sensibilities. then there's this
person who's a unit of society. who tries to be a 'good' one at that.
the problem begins when both reside in the same person. like two beggars
facing starvation and having only a day's food at a time. if both
do get to eat together, then the person is either well adapted and in some cases lucky,
or , at the other end, crazy

i think the sayin goes "a thing of beauty is a joy forever". wuz it john keats?! ah anyway, thats not important. ur posts are v. thought provoking. good to see in a blog that isn't updated often. its good to c some new posts.. hope ur doin fine, dude.
i completely agree with that funda. therez a thing i'd like to add. its abt time-slicing. 'unit of society' is the mode we're most often in. the other guy surfaces rarely. n whats bad is, its like one beggar gettin most of the food. the other beggar can't be appeased with morsels for much longer. one day 'schwarzy-in-eraser ishtyle', he will break open the floorboards n enter ur house of 'LIFE'. u better keep ur welcome ready..
hey dood. never thought anyone will read this post fully.most of my recent posts are incomplete ones
which I pushed out coz the blog was silent for
almost too long.
how do I put a bmp onto my blog ? do I need to have it on a website ?
