  • To create

    What does it mean to live fully in a time of rampant escapism? Which has been, perhaps, all of the humanity’s time, anyway. Is it wrong, then, to create, to turn to something outside of the self, even to the extent of making something simply for that sake, to perpetuate the consciousness’s self-denial? Must this…

    expired sentiments

    Here’s a snippet of my recently published work, ‘expired sentiments’! Time works weirdly in that now is the right moment for me to turn to old written experiences. Just enough distance to say I don’t resonate with them anymore but that doesn’t mean they ought to be completely forgotten. So, here they are, hoping their…

  • Modern myths

    Science and spirituality—the modern world’s mythologies. That is, in the sense that, they are what we turn to for comfort, in the same way that our ancestors did their stories and myths. This is comfort for the compulsive pattern-and-logic-seeking consciousness, present in the collective human species. Perhaps it is not that logic and rationality are…

  • On the modern world’s opium

    “Love” in the modern world is as much of a distraction as the empty stomach of a wandering mind stuck in a boring classroom lecture. “Love”, the religion of the conformists—mistakenly called “love” that which is simply “committed relationships”. From the same principle of such contracts emerged private property, capitalism, and corruption, among other lovely…

  • The game

    Then more things: stillness and how I want to write. How I want to write many, many things. And on that note, this thought: of just being and letting be. So what if you had gone into the ‘blackhole-of-things’? What if that was where you were meant to be at that time. Look where you…

  • In the midst of Nothing

    오후 6:44 I have countless of thoughts. All of which can be summarized in just four words: What is the point? Right now is no question of whether or not there would be university classes. Or whether or not there is a supreme being categorized as ‘god’—none of those seem to be worth asking anymore.…

  • Of thanks

    I think I am going to start with the closer, smaller things first: those that I have loved since childhood but had been left there since, and the little parts of my day-to-day. One at a time. There is always the pressure to go bigger, do more, magis—but I have been learning that magis means…

  • Comfort is an illusion

    I have been thinking of how I can best prepare for the future and on what criteria can I say that I have already fully prepared for it. That no matter what happens, I will be okay for at least a couple of years or so without having to ask others for assistance. Then I…

  • Of Knowing and Living

    오후 2:07 I have been feeling lost, but not exactly because I do not know what to do, although that is what I have been asking myself: What now? What next? What should I do? And I know what to do: there are a long list and countless thoughts, several, even spiritual, guidance. Yes, I…
