Time never torture
or cornering
as he had never entertain
or cure
time just put us
in a lot of space
which filled the doors
of events
for we select and to enter
until we find
a lot of other doors
which will bring us
to the room next trip
continuously.
If you entertained,
or suffer
heart of our soul
is the one who has all reasons.

So poetic & philosophical post, makes me to think about the questions of the universe!!!
O’o… What is the question of the universe, Anastasia?
For example, the secret of time frames. Something like that.
Whoa… This is amazing… I am discussing with genius apparently… Allow me to learn from you, please….
Ha-ha, let’s learn from each other! Wish you a great start of a new week!
Thank you so much for your kind heart, Anastasia. Hopefully you have a special and great week, especially towards Christmas this time.
Is there really a space of time?
Or was it just fabrication of human mind?
Living is ruled by time
Time to be born
Time to grow
Time to study
Time to marry
Time to die
Space is timeless
The true eternity

I go fishing
in a quiet river
for so long
no fish biting a hook
somehow
another angler came
we are fishing together
laughing together
enjoy time
enjoy activities
though not getting a fish
at least got friends.
Aloha new friend,
namaste.
Wow! Way to reply! Lol! Yes, I bow to your poetry new friend. Love it.
Thanks for the love, Pixie
If the Pixie sticks with me for a long time, I will have to change my name into that hahaha Pixie, The Harping Lee LOL!
O’o… My apology… but you put by APixie… then I made a mistake… hehehe…
Both Doc and Carol refer to me as Pixie and I have no trouble with that because it rhymes with pesky which I am hahaha
I got lucky, a friend who dared to admit themselves pesky usually know that their twin is luck or even pleasing. Who knows I will be infected by the luck. Hehehe…
Knowing our own weaknesses and acknowledging the same keeps us grounded. And yes, I consider myself lucky in many aspects of life – but of course that perspective is subjective. One can think like a victor or a victim. I prefer the former – makes life a lot easier and happier. Now we are turning this into a chatbox. I hope you are not a Libra. Only Libra peeps (based on experience with Libra friends) turn things like this into chatbox. Lol!
Upzz… Is there a prohibition to discuss or chat here? I wish I was libra but unfortunately I was born on June 10th. Weakness & strength, misfortune & luck, subjective & objective, and also victim & victor are perfect twins in the duality of life, then we can not just want to live with just one of them for both of them inseparable.
Certainly, I have not read any such rule kind sir. Perfect twin like Gemini, lol! Life work in balance…cannot have sunshine without the rain. Oh, and commenting earns me Virils so yes let us continue haha
Yep! I am the symbol of human perfection! ? The point is that since man is perfect then Gemini represents it as a symb?l… and yes… this kind of discussion only give benefits, right? Hehehe….
Man “thinks” it is perfect. That is the ego talking. But maybe the whales are more perfect than humans. They can navigate the whole dang ocean with equipment. And since we both like philosophy, how about you check my “Live Now, Be Love” and we can continue our discussion over there. Lol! I do business alongside with friendship you see.
I mean…without equipment. Sometimes my brain works faster than my typing fingers lol!
Humans feel perfect because of the ego, but the same entity also makes people feel or perceive human is not perfect. Okay, I’ll visit your post.
Ego is not an entity but rather an activity. At least that is how it was explained to me and I have perfect reason to believe it. I am from Philippines and my way of thinking where spirituality is concerned is so un-Filipino. In this part of the globe, we believe in heaven with singing angels and fiery hell where satan resides. Lol!
I know that the ego is not an entity, and if I call it that way, it is just a symbolic expression to personify its “unseen” existence. Hey… Because you are in the Philippines, then we are neighbors, I mean our country are neighbors. I think that all countries, nations or societies that cling to religion, believe in such heaven and hell. Well, spirituality is not a religion.
There is only a thin line dividing spirituality and religion. Rumi said: “All religions, all this singing, one song. The differences are just illusion and vanity. The sun’s light look a little different on this wall than it does on that wall, and a lot different on this other one, but it’s still one light.” Or Ramana Maharshi’s: “All paths in the mountain lead to one direction. What is waste of time is going around the mountain telling everyone that they are going on the wrong direction.” There is, of course, heaven and hell. Not just the kind that many thought of it to be. Is the other angler from Indonesia? First time I saw your name in Adel’s quote challenge article, Indonesia was the thing that comes to my mind. I had been to Bali, Yogyakarta and Jakarta – love Bali the most (and meant to go back coz I want to stay in a villa amidst ricefield lol), the bus ride to Yogyakarta is still one of the memories we keep on talking to this day (awww, crazy driver hahaha!) and I had fun in the gem’s center in Jakarta.
Rumi’s words are the beauty of the gray words as I have said. Sufis and mystics generally depart from religious society, but since they only want to share the love and not enmity then their language is very subtle though paradigmatic. However, fundamentalists, in general, have put them out of the circle. To borrow Deepak Chopra’s words: Religion is a belief in someone ‘s experience, and spirituality is having your own experience.
Do you use a bus from Bali to Yogyakarta? Yeah, all night buses between provinces in Indonesia are driven by crazy drivers! Hehehe…
Yes, we did. Because the money for the airfare was used to pay for the jetski and parasailing experience. Lol! Sacrifice some to get some. See. My country already have crazy drivers but that Indonesian bus driver topped the list until now. Hahaha! We still have laughs out of it every time we recall the story. I was not able to sleep the whole stretch of travel.
Shoot! We have a new style of chatting hahahahaha
Yeah! Thanks for this nice long chat, my friend. This is the advantage of having a workspace that no one approaches unless we need them. Hahayy…
Hahahaha! Oh well, I owe you some more read which I will do in few days. The notifs here in Virily is pretty inconvenient to work thru. Eats up a lot of time just sorting thru it. Have a pleasant evening as afternoon is almost gone. I hope it is not raining in your side and I hope you will not encounter flood and traffic jam.
What can make it, it seems out there the vehicle density is already happening!
Time is in us and we are in time.As always, the combination is great.
As always, your support and caring always make me happy and honored, dear Elenka
Beautiful works! I loved this post!
Thanks a lot for the love, Ellie
