4/16/2008 - Ebb and Flow - stream of conciousness

There is an ebb and flow to existence. We are each particles in a wave that moves across the face of reality. There is a collective understanding to which each of us holds a breach. Each of us guards that which we know to be true. That information becomes a part of the common memory.

Each of us is a single fiber, of a single strand, of a single thread, tied in a knot along the warp of reality within the weft of time. It is we who decide what we will be in this, and what we will contribute. It is our decision to mark this tapestry of reality, or be hidden within the folds.

Existence becomes meaningless in the face of our loss of self. In our drive to manifest, we've bypassed lessons learned. Our culture is dying, we cycle through information faster than we can process. There are so many paths and choices, we are forever evolving, and by some chance or whim or possibly choice, our culture is stagnating. The fundamental cross purpose that pervades every day life, is confounding the reality we have built for ourselves.

Maybe we are merely walking this path in preparation for another. Soon we will be the ones that came before, the lonesome gods that others pay dues to. What have we left for those who will come after? We are the torch bearers, we are those who light the path. It is for use to be a part of the collective understanding. To hold fast our breach in reality, to wade into the flood waters, and lead those that come after, into the west.
