Words speak for Thoughts

The mind favours the storage of good memories over bad

2011-10-29T03:39:00.000-07:00

Like squirrels we keep a wholesome supply of food for thought for times when our situation is bleak.
Once we have learned the lesson that a bad experience has taught us this is the only part that the mind wishes to remember.

Words worth thinking about?

Suggested statements for doctors to say as well as the Hippocratic oath when they are newly qualified.
1. I am still an ignorant human being but I have been given wonderful tools with which to learn. Let me use them wisely.
2. Let me always remember that more of my patients will recover despite me than because of me.
3. Let me never make a patient worse by my treatment and always remember, ‘fools rush in where angels fear to tread’ or, ‘ should I mess this up by myself or call in an expert?’

If you believe that going to a gym and punching hell out of a bag hung from the ceiling relieves you of the aggression that this modern world creates in your mind you are lying to yourself.
Your actions only feed the need for violence.

Chicken and Egg Conundrum

2010-09-16T13:39:00.000-07:00

Whenever I stop thinking, I am lost for words.
Which comes first?
That my thoughts should need the support of the framework of words I think is unsupportable.
My thoughts are mine alone and have no need to be communicated in words however,
Whenever I start thinking, I am lost in words.
Which comes first?

A Puzzle with no Winner

It cannot be divided,
It only multiplies,
It cannot be sold,
It only gives,
It cannot be lost,
It only finds,
It cannot be copied,
It only is original.
It cannot be,
It only is.

No prizes for the only possible answer.
After all what are we to deny its’ existence even if it has never shown itself.

Believe Only in the Unknown

2010-08-24T06:04:00.000-07:00

The courage to declare your dream when it flies in the face of reality belongs to the brave soul that stands at the gates of hell and can only see heaven beyond.

Look to religion if you ever want to see a reaction against reality that always attempts to silence truth and opposes it with inadequate reasoning.

Don't ever try to silence the dreamers that believe in more because they see the need to learn.

Something for Nothing

I only know I am lost.

The human race is heading toward extinction unless it can develop intelligence to recognise arrogance and wisdom to understand ignorance.

No One Here

2010-08-08T11:54:00.000-07:00

No one word can ever hold one thought,
No one thought can ever hold one reason,
No one reason can ever hold one action,
No one action can ever hold one result,
No one result can ever hold one answer,
No one answer can ever hold one word.

One to One

2010-08-06T13:12:00.000-07:00

No one word can ever hold one thought unless it reaches directly from one mind to another.

There are very few words that are capable of carrying such a burden.

No What

2010-08-01T07:14:00.000-07:00

If only…

If the Son of God that Christians claim they believe in walked this earth again He would declare their church rotten to the core.

He would overturn the tables of the ‘modern moneychangers’ that seek to offer everlasting life with one hand while taking every penny from the gullible with the other.

He would declare ‘You have made my father’s house a den of thieves.’

The Christian church has nothing whatsoever to do with Jesus Christ.
He would be horrified to be associated with such hypocrisy.

If only…

…We were to be allowed another chance; we would crucify the Son of God again.
We will always trash every chance given by God and much more besides.

If only…

…We could come to terms with our humanity we might save ourselves.

Then God would smile at last and recognise us as His children.

If Only...

2010-07-30T10:43:00.000-07:00

We could come to terms with our humanity we might save ourselves.

Then God would surely smile at last and recognise us as His children.

Doctors frequently prescribe their own shit for their patients. Given time they will hopefully learn to do better.

Psychiatrists are failed doctors because they are incapable of picking up their own shit, as they cannot recognise it in the cesspit of humanity.

Life seeks Space

2010-06-25T07:18:00.000-07:00

Some birds were so intelligent that having learned to fly they traded the sky for the dirt under their feet.
Some mammals were so intelligent that having learned to breathe air they traded the earth under their feet for the sea.

Some people are so intelligent that having learned to walk on earth, swim in the sea and fly through the sky they trade it all for apparently nothing.

Intelligence will seek any possible avenue for life whether it is one that was previously passed by or something yet to be explored.

Nothing is forever.
Forever is eternity,
I am less than nothing.

Therefore I am mortal.

If arrogance ever equals ignorance then Man will reign supreme

2010-06-21T07:28:00.000-07:00

The greatest arrogance man can show is to claim that he is formed in the image of God.

In the past great artists pandered to the Church (that paid the bill) by portraying what it wanted the people to see.

If you want to see arrogance still active today you have no need to look further than the Christian Church or any so called Religious Order that still holds on like grim death to every nuance that could enhance their power over the ignorant masses of decent people that need something to believe in.

The sad thing is they only need to believe in themselves to be saved.

No Christian Church will tell them that simple fact.
Why not? Because they need the lost ‘ to pay the way.’

Does the brain work faster when asleep?
*****

A dream that seems should have taken hours may be over in a few minutes.
The amount of information a dream of a few minutes can hold is far more than could be consciously assimilated while awake.

When we dream our conscious mind is asleep we remember dreams subconsciously and may or may not be able to recall them when we wake.

What are dreams except a stream of unbroken thoughts?

What is reality except thoughts repeatedly questioned by the mind?

Conclusion. The brain works at the same pace awake or asleep. It only seems to work faster when asleep because it is not being continually interrupted.

I feel pity for anyone who does not remember their dreams because they contain so much more entertainment than any media using a woken mind as the receiver can deliver.
They also give a frosted window through which we can see the shadows of the mind dancing.

This time I have answered my own question :) but still welcome more thoughts on the matter.

To a new UK Government now under sail

2010-05-14T11:21:00.000-07:00

Look behind you for what your wake has thrown up.
For there the past is brought into the present.

Neither of you can captain a ship of this size without throwing up more than you have already done from your previously very small vessels. Are you capable of containing your effluent?

Sailing into the wind requires tacking, something I have to admit you are both extremely well versed in but...

The future waits for those that correctly predict changes in the wind.

A strong ship requires one captain in order to take full advantage of a following wind.

Divided and conquered I predict this ship will sink while it attempts to gather sufficient information on how to sail with a favourable wind.

We are assessed not only by our ability to learn but also by what we do with the knowledge we gain.

Silence holds every sound that has ever been made and welcomes the music the future will compose.
Darkness holds every picture that has ever been seen and welcomes the light in which the future will be filmed.

...Deaf and blind silence and darkness reign in the present and have yet to welcome the future.

Whoever said the night is young never looked up to see the stars.

Why?

2010-03-02T10:52:00.000-08:00

Never look to the future for answers until you have responded in full to the past and the present holds no surprises only then will you understand the future holds nothing but questions.

Where, who, what, when and more importantly how stand alone like all who dare to question and therefore move into the future without the hindrance from past mistakes or present ignorance.

What is reality?
The time spent between dreams to find light in the darkness of day.

The Seasons

2010-02-12T07:37:00.001-08:00

Winter

The sun sinks in the sky and shadows stretch out, as if to touch the cold heart of darkness.

Spring

The sun rises in the sky and shadows shrink, as if fleeing from a song.

Summer

The sun reigns in the sky and shadows dance, as if they have found a partner in light.

Autumn

The sun paints a year in the sky and shadows echo time, as if they hold the secret of life.

Time Waits for No One

When you stand for truth, make sure you have both feet on the ground.

Because we freely love, as in our will
To love or not; in this we stand or fall.’

Find the Rhythm ...

2010-02-02T18:51:00.000-08:00

Thought seeks a pattern to describe its' existence in reality.
Words are a poor attempt in communication.
Music carries the burden of words within sound so we all may hear poetry in motion.
