If you have been shafted by the gods

What can you do?

Logic is useless, prevarication pointless, lying impossible.

Whatever is 'IS', and you deal with it.

 

I think there is more to 'LIFE' than the physical.

I accept 'SCIENCE: to observe, to test, to conclude, to know, to alter'.

Our senses are programmed according to 'rules'

As is our entire physical body.

Including our brain basically, but not wholly.

A very strange organ, the brain -

Master and Servant simultaneously.

We postulate endlessly about its functions

That we have rigidly 'tested in the tube':

'We know the brain'!

 

HA!

Its absolute power lies in the 'unknow-ability' of it.

Its total weirdness.

So - I think 'SOMETHING' exists, some 'OTHER'

That transcends molecular structure.

And we long for it

As the greatest treasure possible.

 

We search for it endlessly.

Not necessarily from 'Follow the Leader'

Or a 'Guide Book'.

I think it is only YOU

Who can crack the 'Miracle of Life'

By searching 'under' where you 'stand'.

Only the Honest acknowledge it -

Only the Bold seek it -

Only the Simple find it.

I do not consider that contradictory.
