I don’t know where this idea came from, but it came.
The idea that there is meaning behind things; life, death, and everything in between.
The wisdom, the meaning, the sly insight in the details... I like to think it's there.
We all love that, we all prefer to believe that there is a wisdom behind anything, it would make us feel less alone on this earth.
You live your life and you imagine that you are searching for meaning, for the essence that is ambiguous in the heart of a rose with a thousand petals.
You open the petals, one by one, into the heart of the rose.
You live believing that there is a rose, that the rose has a heart, that the meaning is in the heart, that the meaning already exists,
His existence precedes your existence, and all you have to do is look for him.”
