the boundaries of having no boundaries is to know how far one can go about running the fields without going insane.we are so set to put a barricade of contradictions in everything we do because we always expect things to stop sooner or later. But what if the stop to occur has no direct relation to the boundaries we set?
Thinking all the while that boundaries and limits help us regulate the stop we are expecting to occur, when in fact, it is the manifestation of fear to go out beyond what we do not understand.
Thus, the stop we are expecting is but an illusion and excuse to set ourselves in our comfort zone because we fear to go and explore that which we find strange...worse...things we cannot control.
One example would be the fact that we define ourselves.
Who am I.
What makes me ME?
and what makes me different?
So obssessed we are in defining ourselves and setting a different character to be identified from the commonalities of the human race.
I am myself. I am beyond what you think of me. I am more than what you see. I am more than a product of my relationships and decisions. I have a certain quality higher than that you percieve me to have.
Yet in my moment of confusion and anger, I see myself acting against the set of rules I have conveniently fenced around me.
That is definitely me.
But I see no one doing it aside from that shell that bore my face.
Is that me?
But it goes against the set of character I've learned to fence myself around with.
Can it be me? I would have known... I am myself. and on goes the debate...
We become trapped within the limits we set ouselves with... forgetting that we could easily lift it. That with one blow and it topples like cards...
so set me a boundary...
map me out and find me, like a rat, sniff my way out.
aut viam inveniam aut faciam
There are things that are opposite to eachother but are utterly inseparable...but the world has a unison of the differences that overlaps eachother.
In order not to get lost, we map ourselves certain lines of what is and what is not. But we often forget that the dichotomy of life, though real, is never hindering and it never will. Differences are just that, differences, they are not barricades, nor are they walls to alienate the world or the people around us.
And even with boulders positioned so that we may limit ourselves in terms of co existing and interacting, so we may preserve a certain sanctuary -- too sacred for others to insert themselves in...Trancendence is what we do best.
We draw the lines so we do not get lost as we live in this complicated world. But the lines are but imaginary. And the lines vary according to the map maker...
but the the lines can only do so much as bound those who've forgotten how boundless life can be.
so take me and ill show you how it is to be me.
