👏
I am speechless. The way you wrote today Mais, did not seem like 'writing' to me. It seemed like a poem..like you are singing a song. Beautiful, deep and TRUE. I watched the episode twice but..your stark perception of the going-ons in the episode made me realise the need for having limitless observation. Where do you get these words from, these thoughts from, these philosophies, these interpretations, these perspectives from?? From a fiction, from fictional characters you have drawn out the universal truths of life..driving every point straight home. The words, the reality in the words just hit me. These universal truths, it's like something you have always known but you forgot or you wanna evade; its like these truths were always around you, but not visible, in the dark, and suddenly they just start glowing like fireflies in front of your eyes and so brightly that not only you can't ignore them but are completley dazzled. It was like I was suddenly made so aware of existence of every other matter in the universe. The bigger picture flashed and became so clear. Your post made me feel that it were not just the ideas that were coming out from you, but it was a glimpse of YOU that was freely flowing like a river, no forcing, no holding back, allowing the light of your thoughts to shine and join the light that was all around in the episode and in the universe. I might have gone a little too deep and I might be making no sense at all, but this is the impact your post had and that too in one reading ---I am in awe..of how your pen so poignantly sang and your soul just flowed and flowed and flowed.
Quoting FOR YOU and your post an excerpt from the book 'Who are You?' by Ellie Pierce
"It is the soul where art flows from; the soul remembers each and every poignant moment in life and allows these to flow through the artist who is connected and brave enough to listen."
In today's episode also most of them were like a river, going with the flow. And flowing water i read is one of the best teachers of acceptance and surrender. Yes 'today' was over in the episode and what 'tomorrow' brings you don't know, but between this eventful today and hope a not-so-disastrous tomorrow, it feels like the night has suddenly become so silent, knowing;preparing and waiting for the inevitable tomorrow. I might be going out of context here, making little sense, my interpretation might be completely off track and I might be digressing from the
topic and your take, but let me be like the flowing water for once atleast on paper.
Quoting Manuel Bandeira's (Brazilian poet) words
"To be like a river that flows
silent through the night,
not fearing the darkness and
reflecting any stars high in the sky.
And if the sky is filled with clouds,
the clouds are water like the river, so
without remorse reflect them too"
[meaning-We often have the tendency to fight' against something or to try harder'.When the water [in the river] comes across obstacles, like rocks, it smoothly flows around them in stead of trying to push the rocks on the side. Flowers never 'try hard' to bloom. They just bloom. That's the law of existence.Maybe it's worth trying to literally go with the flow'. Pretty soon you will find that it's not a matter of trying' anymore. ]

P.S.: Alas, so easier said than done-to go with the flow of life. I don't like tommorow. I prefer today. tommorow never comes. the tommorow that one desires, one wishes for.Why? Maybe because we chose hiding-hiding behind the most common, yet destructive addiction-our comfort zone instead of facing and conquering. I know after getting so inspired I am getting all cynical again.maybe need to go through your post and the responses to your post once again😊(just read the replies)..You seem to have ignited that hidden spark in all. Everyone has reached enlightenment and are spreading their light to everyone else around. Ahh..so philosophies are not just philosophies. They can be true. I just realised that the theory i quoted initially in my reply is coming true: You have allowed the light of your thoughts to shine and join the light that was all around inside others on this forum. This topic has turned into a soul&life discovery channel. Apologise for getting sooo carried away.
Anyways would like to sum up with
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
