Daring To Look

All we wanted was to understand the universe. Towards this end, each illustrative event was valuable and to be venerated accordingly. From it, reflection upon its meaning and origin was necessary, typically rewarding with insight and perspective.

Accordingly, we hated the trivial distractions that sought to draw us away from understanding the essential that had illuminated wisdom to be uncovered and made a part of our internal nature.

We also hated evasions that did not dare to look at the events before us, but instead refused precious knowledge to be plucked, satisfying itself with chosen ignorance out of laziness and comfort.

Deficiencies and shortcuts come undone by time. Upon a collapse, shall we inspect what happened and understand its conditions, or feign surprise and slip away in a smokescreen? Dishonesty and lack or curiousity are a failing to honor life; also a bringer of death.

Calamaties have so much to say. Shall we better understand what we missed and misjudged? For they also show us a glimpse of the future if you understand how all things are connected by various strands.

The North Star guiding through darkness can be utilized as a centering mechanism, or looked away from so one can be safely lost in helplessness.
