Contradict themselves:
quite often, it seems, my views might contradict themselves - I'm fortunate that I don't consider myself a teacher, or even someone who has to be held accountable for a shifting story and changing viewpoint. I simply write what each moment holds for me as true right then, and allow the words their temporary value on the page. Honestly, I don't know what's true and certain and try my best to write from this perspective, expressing my own translation from a glimpse of mystery.
absolutely everything I write is fiction.
yet also true in the moment that it's written.
or at least it's a version of being true, relative to the infinite mystery of life that's still to be explored - and it's here that my views might contradict themselves, as what seems an important insight right now might be just a fraction of a much larger truth that will later be revealed. And of course everything is based upon my own interpretation that will most certainly hold a bias, no matter that I try and keep my beliefs at bay while writing. So I allow every contradiction, accepting them as versions of an expanding insight, the same truth told but always from a new and growing perspective.
or perhaps I'm simply wrong.
exploring our own consciousness is a science, and with that in mind being wrong is just a matter of course correction, gathering more information, a bit more mystery revealed and processed in new and dawning light. Personally I don't believe there will ever be a final truth in our own exploration of consciousness, that awakening never really ends, expanding, contradicting what we think we know. In the very, very beginning, or at least the beginning of what we believe we know - a singularity of infinite depth and gravity expanded in a sudden burst of energy and self-importance, consciousness dawning, and with this created its very own space-time to give room for its expansion. Neither space, nor time, existed until the universe gave need. We are part of this self-creation, our reality being fluid, expanding it its own needs, and it's simply impossible to make any claim of what is absolutely true and certain in the faith of such expansion. Our views will probably always contradict themselves.
or maybe I'm wrong about it all.
