Complexity

Perfect Moment

by SearedWithScars

I wait for the night. Tears flood my eyes when the sun sings silently as it bows down to the distant horizon.  Darkness erases the crimson sky and casts forth a glitter of brilliant light. The night sky’s iridescent perfection. My body is weightless in their presence. But nothing lasts. Even the stars cannot defy death.

Surrender to the dark.

Nature is simple in its complexity. Pure. Flawless. Even in its destruction, it’s perfect. Most people see fires and tornadoes and floods as something to fear and hate, but I see something to admire. Nature does not mourn loss, nor does it fear renewal. No regrets.

I don’t know.

I find myself every day saying this. I repeat this word alot.  I’ve been living with the spectre of suicide since I was 8, I’ve hated life since then.   I saw my grandfather lying in the casket, and everyone was crying, I didn’t understand until I went over and told grandpa to wake up… he didn’t wake up.

i have loved words. their complexity. their vain reflection on the paper. their strokes on mcdonnald’s tissue paper as i sat by the corner with a black pen. the way they are tattooed on my thoughts. inked out of precise tune of delicate compilation of strings of grammatical compounds. their manipulative ways of tricking the ones who do not listen. words are by far the most genius and vilest invention. even so, i have loved words since the beginning. their binding ways of reaching out to their other halves, asking, begging to be complete. to be a sentence. their caring ways of understanding attitude. their […]

Looking for interview for mini-documentary series

by jenniferleareed
written by jenniferleareed

Hello Everyone,

I’m the producer of a new mini-documentary series exploring philosophical, ethical, spiritual or existential issues facing people today. The installments look at these issues from social, scientific and spiritual perspectives and are intended to be thought provoking, reassuring and inspirational. Representative topics include: Can one person make a difference in the world? Is there an upside to adversity? How can we deal with grief and loss in a positive way? For each of the topics we will be turning to a variety of sources – educators, scientists, psychologists, behaviorists and theologians – as we sort out the complexity of the questions and the possible […]
