I mostly lurk, but sometimes post. I usually don't post a lot because it seems there are a lot around here who share the same mindset as I do, and there's no need to repeat what someone else already said if I already agree with it. :wink:

― Ernest Becker

Hey I answered :mad:
I demand gratification :lol:


--------------------
:bunny::bunnyhug:
All this time I've loved you
And never known your face
All this time I've missed you
And searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs

:bunnyhug: :yinyang2:

Is this love that I'm feeling ... or is it hate ... the same?

This emotion's enough to kill the sane.


--------------------
Night is falling. The world’s night is spreading its darkness, by the ‘default of God.’ Not only have the gods and the god fled, but the divine radiance has become extinguished in the world’s history. It has already grown so destitute, it can no longer discern the default of God as a default. Because of this default, there fails to appear for the world the ground that grounds it. The age for which the ground fails to come hangs in the abyss. Assuming that a turn still remains open for this destitute time at all, it can come some day only if the world turns about fundamentally—and that now means, unequivocally. But for this it is necessary that there be those who reach into the abyss. — Martin Heidigger, “What Are Poets For?”
