The realization must grow

He who wants to recognize right, must have doubted before in the right way.

- Aristotle -

An organic abstraction of being brings an eloquent language, gigantic thoughts, a lot of questions, questions about questions! Sad, too hectic, everything is going too fast?

Inquiries to my ego, doubts, how can this be?

And anyway, why, illusory comfort, perverse standstill in the solitude of thoughts? When I become aware of an idea, I first doubt, I don't "buy" stories from higher powers, when I change perspective, I arrive at other causalities, history would have been different, what if?

Columbus sailed west by mistake and found the east!

If you have to decide something tomorrow, think of the discovery of America, "good" is not always "good", "bad" can also quickly lead to wonderful things, "good" can become a disaster, who knows what tomorrow will be.

Is your RECOGNITION of the nature of things growing?

Are you recognizing?

Things that matter, that make up, fulfill people and incidents that shape their environment?

Knowing instead of not knowing?

The teacher of all teachers said: Only few see that being patient also makes patient! The philosophy of Buddha, already doubts can arise. The knowledge must grow, are the words of the holy man from long ago days. But today is also yesterday, tomorrow is also almost over, everything is flowing now, and even the day after tomorrow will soon be the past.

Do not doubt, in the ugliness of our existence lies nevertheless unbelievable beauty.

In my culture people are humanistic, doubts are allowed, the knowledge must grow, culture grows from history!

So many living beings die, as such are born!

Stupidly run!

To whom everything succeeds well in his life, for him soon the world circle has no more space. Possess only, and soon you will do without.

- Friedrich von Schiller - German poet - 1759 to 1805
