The things that simply are

The things that simply are
hey, so first apologies, sorry for missing a post yesterday, I was kind of lost in translation once I got home, which wasn't that early but the absence of a post was simply because I felt in a strange character that I couldn't define as being me. I know it sounds like a bunch of bull, and maybe it is, the fact is a miss one which I am truly sorry for. For that reason, or because I am lost in translation, I am going to try a different type of post today, hopefully it will make as much sense here as in my head...
First let me set the tone, I found an old cd in my car that provided a nice soundtrack for today, seems fiting that I present you with the main tone from it.
This is from a great movie, or at least for me it was (perhaps for the topic and storyline :P), which I think people should revisit from time to time, and go beyond the great sarcasm that it entails. Press play, see the video if you wish to be reminded but if you do once it is done press play again and read with that tone as your back setting.



I've been thinking of myself lately, I know sounds very self involved which is probably true, on the up side I actually have a tendency to generalize and extract global "truths" from my own small world or worlds.
The things that simply are, the things that transcend logic and reason, the things you deny exist. Fuck this is a hard topic, I am struggling with the next thing to say, and yet I am sure you know what I am talking about. Some things just make sense, not logical sense, but simply make sense, we feel them as such, and we feel what is right more than you logically infer it. Logic however has been proven to work, thus we tend to stick with it more often than not, regardless of what the common misconception that human beings follow the heart. We tend not to follow our heart unless logic sustains that decision, after all who likes being hurt? Like I said logic has a good track record, and we learned to accept the reasonable, the logical, our argument based reality. Still we feel the things, beyond the reason, beyond the logic, beyond the definition of ourselves, beyond conventional right and wrong.
Dealing with this is what really defines us, others or ourselves. Logical arguments of what is right, the need to make a case and win it with words, thus using the tools others created and becoming bound to them, or taking a gamble in more than what seems right (and probably is), in more than what makes sense and trust what you feel...
Logic can create feelings, this is a concept I’ve come to realize, how? Well it is like peer pressure, if other say this is the right thing, and we know logically it is, how can we go against it? Well we don't, at least most of the times, we find new ways of feeling supporting the so called real world. This one is an interesting concept since it is hard to separate ourselves from these complex web logical arguments, honestly I have know idea if I feel simply because I do, or because I am induced to do so.... Like I said, it is a complicated concept.
Back on topic, things we feel are right, honestly I would like to say this is the way to go, let be brave and go for this, forget logic... But this is me talking, I use logic as the right arm of my existence, yet I do feel these things... Conflict is such a messing business in ones brain, is Coexistence possible? I really don't know, I wish for it to be, but I know it is not, again conflict in the solution...
The simple things that simply are, the things that scare me, the things that make me thrive for more, the things that make me wish to live, the things that I want to have, the things I need to hold, to touch, to feel... The ocean is a force in my life that simply is, I can't explain it, there is no logic in it, perhaps some poetry can scratch the surface of its definition, and yet I simply feel the connection, the link that forever binds me to sea, his acceptance of me, his understanding, his wrath when calling me to reason, his advice, his proof of friendship... Surreal? Perhaps, and logically I might agree but still it is there...
Obviously I meant more than just this example, but I won’t go beyond it, one more song for rapping up this tone, straight from the same movie(although I choose a video without movie parts due to reasons from my reason), and very close to my thoughts...
