So, recently in the last few years (I consider recent, since relativity is subjective), I have been enthralled and enchanted by Chinese Fantasy, specifically the modern rendition of Cultivation type settings. The type where one goes into a group or sect and cultivates in a cave and consumes pills, medicines, drugs, and elixirs to refine... Continue Reading →
Obsession creates distance
There's a balance to all things, and the point of obsession means that a person is more 'obsessed' about a particular topic or subject than what the standard norms or normalities imply. Obsession isn't a bad thing if there's positive direction and progress, but too much can be a deadly poison. Too much desire implants... Continue Reading →
The Duty for those that bear to See
If seeing is believing, Then those that see have a duty to speak and act If they don't speak or act based on what they see, then they're good as blind. Dismissive of the state of reality. Negligent to how things are. Thus in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. We... Continue Reading →
The Festival of Hands
The Festival of Hands is a new combination of words that I'd like to invite people in on. It is my way of saying 'The will of the world' or 'The Dao' in a sense. The origin of this phrase comes from my etymology of the term 'manifest'. The prefix 'mani-' is 'hands' and 'fest'... Continue Reading →

I say that age gives way to the number of chances to gain wisdom. People live their lives doing things over and over and... Continue Reading →

So Disney Land could be translated to Disneystan, which is a common joke amongst Americans that have 'toured' the middle east. "To stan" sounds like similar to Stand on, to be over in a sense. To reside from... Continue Reading →
A Serious Thought
This is but a Serious Eclectic Thought, If the Worlds a Stage; "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts." - Shakespeare And if the World is full of actors wearing masks as personas for their... Continue Reading →
Existential observation of self
To continue on with the post "If we didn’t have a name for it, A Word, does it exist?" Does something exist before we observe it or does it exist after we observe it? In terms of object permanence, babies aren't fully developed in the brain thus they only see what they believe and believe... Continue Reading →
Mythology of the Subconscious
In modern times, we have the conscious mind and the subconscious mind. The part of us that is aware and focused and the part of us that stores information and runs in the background. If we were to look at many religions, mythologies, and stories and symbols, we can see that there is a representation... Continue Reading →
