Random Thought #8

We're all trapped in physical bodies on a pale blue dot floating in the vast space of nothingness. Systems built to keep us occupied and distracted from our insignificance and loneliness.
Self-absorbed sentient speckles of dust surviving for the sake of survival; which all ends with good old cliched Death. An elaborate cosmic joke. What a grand design indeed. A purposeless grand design. BRAVA!

  1. Somehow you found the right words to my thoughts. The thought came randomly to you, and I randomly chanced upon your blog, finally to end up feeling like a full-circle. So does randomness have something to do in giving us completeness?

    1. Yes, it comes into a full-circle. The thing about circles is they don't end. This infinite cycle will continue. Have you ever had a long lasting sense completeness? I am caught in the cycle of deconstruction and reconstruction of the self. Random chances come up, serve their purpose for that moment and they vaporize. This one is a painful thought it is always there but I refuse to dive into it, cause if i do i'd have to shake everyone on the street and tell them to wake up. Pardon my gibber if i am not making sense, i'm a little groggy here.

She cried again last night. As usual I had nothing to say but pat her to sleep. Almost two and a half years of continued weeping at night. Shouldering the burden of soothing a 7-year-old, what wisdom does a 10-year-old have to bring it to a stop. Lying next to me, sharing a single bed “Akka, where is mommy?”, the same question asked repeatedly, drowned only by the whir of the fan keeping us cool on  sweltering summer nights.   Looking at her this morning, you would never know the existence of her nightly griefs. Grandma held her hand whilst we both waited for our 6 a.m. school bus. Her short curly hair, dark blue primary pinafore, white shoes, slouching under the weight of her school bag pregnant with heavy textbooks, she looks so ordinary. Or maybe not, we both were unusually skinny and scrawny. Something we have constantly been made fun of at school; a few more years later down the line when we both approached puberty the bullying is only made worse for being flat ches...

A Letter From You to Good Old Mr/Ms Melancholy

Dear Mr/Ms. Melancholy, Come knock on my door and I'll welcome you with open arms. Though my spirit is poor and lacks charm, I promise you I'll be good company. On your previous visit, I have been rude and chased you away; not knowing that distress unto you meant distress unto me. I am hoping that you will accept my sincere apology and come visit me again. Please come by, I'll shake your hands and we can be friends again. I'll let you in, offer you a cup of tea and listen to your monologues.You would neither be interrupted nor rushed, you may take your time and I'll be patient. If you cry, I'll wipe off your tears and offer you a napkin to blow your nose. I'll hold your hands in mine to let you know that you will be alright. When it is time for you to go I'd hug you and with a kiss on your cheek, wave you goodbye. I'll always be here to welcome you. Always. Yours truly, You/Me. (P/S: Melancholia is never forced upon you. When it comes, y...

"Live! Live, I must!".

A fog of uncertainty lingers on the muddy bog ahead, Your presence is unwelcome, The trees frown at you, "Leave! Leave!" hoots the owl, The wolves begin to howl,  Its time to prowl. "Listen to me, my love, This forest is alien to you, And you are a stranger to it, Its hostility knows no boundaries, Take heed of what I'm about to say, The fog, my love, Embrace it you must, Surrender you shall not, Bleed, you may, Die, you must not. When fear arises, Let it have its due respect, But abide it you must not. Hold onto your will to live, It will guide you. Live, you may. Live, you must." You close your eyes, Inhale, And wage ahead. "Live! Live, I must!". GrymmRipper :]
