A brisk walk to those corners of my mind. Angled, abrupt - like those are in a hurry to show me something quick. The night was cold and the distant trees were barely visible except for the slow humming of the leaves. The highway was close by, and occassionally two beams of light with some trillion photons bombarbed the trees. My synapses instantly direct my gaze to those trees and forces me to recollect how it looked during the day. A big enough clearing straight ahead, wild horses within a fence and cicadas singing aloud. The drama of a loud bright day and the perceived silence of the night - like a see-saw - doing its thing.
This piece on the color Blue was really good.
Most of my focus will be in avoiding ego traps and to be more mindful of radical ideas/opinions. As I read somewhere, you need to have "strong opinions, loosely held". And breach the boundaries of resistance and explore more. To be meditative and have a strong focus on "what really matters"
Reminds me of this one by Ethan hawke.
“When you put a log on the fire, the light and heat you see is, in a literal sense, the decades of sunshine that tree basked in over its lifetime.” -
