Peaches & Cream

I stand in front of you
And I am all that I am
Just as you see me
All of me
And nothing else

No lies. No deception. No hidden motives.

Look at me
Listen to me
And you’ll already have known everything

I’m not just honest because it’s wrong to lie!
I’m honest because I don’t want to live a lie!
Because I want you to see me whole
& know me inside out … as I'd know you
Otherwise … how can you be my mate?!

How can you touch your loved ones’ skin
How can you hold them close to you
If your hearts are not true!

If you don’t even know who you’re holding
& you’ve ruined all potential for beauty

I want to be on my loves’ side
I want him on mine
I’m not looking for a tale spinner
Or some poor shmuck who doesn’t know what he wants

All I want is my man
Who will come across to me … as he is
Just who he is
All that he is
& nothing else!

I’m looking for my team mate
My mentor & student
My partner in laughter & tears
And all that we stand for … together

I stand here in front of you
& what you see is all that I am
This is my truth
This is everything
& nothing else

The Fish Princess is Here !

aaaaaaaaaaaaaand .. I have nothing else .. I'm just goofin :P

Alright, so I’m reading this book called “What Are You Optimistic About?”, it’s a collection of responses by scientists & thinkers on the question, edited by John Brockman, & I came across something that could be a reply to my previous post on EXISTENCE! Go Figure ;)

ANTON ZEILINGR

Physicist, University of Vienna, and scientific director of the Institute of Quantum Optics & Quantum information, Austrian Academy of Sciences

“I am optimistic about the future of science. Science as humanity’s systematic endeavor of understanding nature is only a few centuries old. To believe that we have discovered the essentials of nature in such a short time is a sign either of arrogance or lack of imagination. So far, science has been guided by the (in my eyes) fallacious Cartesian divide between res cogitans “thinking being” and res extensa “physical world”. It is wrong to believe that the world out there exists independent of our observation, but it is equally wrong to believe that it exists only because of our observation. We have to, and we will, find a completely new way of looking at the world which will transcend our present materialistic paradigm. After all, we have learned in quantum physics that all concepts of material existence evaporate. In the end, we are left with probability fields – probabilities of the results of observations. I am convinced that in science we have just started to scratch the surface. Our understanding of the world will be radically different from the understanding we have today.”

How exciting!! ;)

1- I want to be a working independent person
2- I want to experience first hand what I learn
3- I want to apply first hand what I lean
4- I want to learn more by experience
5- I want to feel the passion of the children again
6- I need to have a commitment
7- I want to set a corner stone in my life
8- I want to be serious about my career
9- I want to establish myself

10- I want to come into my own


Am I ready for a commitment?

I don’t know
I feel like I want to have it. I want to reach out & make it my own, love & cherish it. However, I fear my wayward, foolhardy nature, what if I suddenly decide I will not & should not be forced to have a commitment?
But would I do that if I personally “choose” to have this commitment?
Do I want a commitment in the first place out of conviction or coercion!

What do I really want to be doing?

I do want to go back to work. What scares me; is that I will have to meet & get personal with people; I’m scared of appearing out in public. Like a vampire with a phobia, afraid of the dark & light, this Bright remains hidden in the pages of her books & in fascinating folds of secret knowledge. Knowledge that is in truth, very public & available to those who would open their minds & take a peek, knowledge makes for appreciation, appreciation makes for understanding, respect & friendship. Alas, if I want to step out into the sun to view the world anew, see it through all my new paradigms, learn so much more & do my part, I will have to make a decision.

So what’ll it be peacha?

Let me sleep on that (^.^)

A thought I kept having … but never knew exactly how to articulate …

Without the observing mind, the universe could not exist; for there would be no consciousness to witness it. The whole history of the universe exists only because we were there to discover & record it, excluding of course, the possibility of extraterrestrial life.

The thought is arrogant & conceited … but it makes sense enough!!

I can think of no logical way to refute this idea. It presumes to put man back to his pre-Copernican place; right in the center of the universe. Could be; that this is exactly why it also appeals to me - the over blown human ego. Yet the very definition of; Universe, is “The whole body of things & phenomena observed or postulated”. Postulated means to “assume or claim as true, existent, or necessary”!

I am not talking about the God part of the story … look at it as an equation …

On the one hand there is this gigantic body we call a universe, on the other there is us; the observer who calls that body a universe. Without the latter to observe & name the former, could it really be said to exists?

Prove me wrong. Are there other factors to consider that would merit the existence of an unobservable universe?

If so, convince me. If not, consider the above thought a theoretical truth. What would this truth mean for us humans? Would it change our perception of life? And how would this change manifest itself in the material world?

I have no idea beyond this point …
