A gesture in the face of infinity! (for Nwagbo)
I live my life in a moment
Treasuring everything that comes to be.
I cherish every breath and vision
From endless sky to sparkling sea;
From the chords of planets
To the sound of peoples’ glee;
The flowers, birds and creatures
From elephant to bee.
I strive to make it better
Not content with what I see
For our endeavours on this planet
Usually end in catastrophe.
I’ve only got a short while
But death does not worry me,
For I know, when my life is measured –
A gesture in the face of infinity!
Opher – 13.8.2020
But that you, a spiritual being, were here on planet Earth enjoying a human experience is sufficient in itself. Who could ask for more.
Enjoy the wonder and awe of another day in paradise.

Everyday, every moment, how fortunate we are. Who could ask for more?
But why do we have to constantly fuck it up????
That is the six million dollar question Opher. Perhaps it is because our understanding of Love is misguided, misappropriated, and failing?
DN
Perhaps it is because we have a genetic flaw that makes us the most evil bunch of apes on the planet?
Doesn’t that amount to much the same thing?
Are we not, in the vast majority of cases, born innocent? If so, perhaps it is the matrix into which we are born that is innately flawed. Whilst led by the blind, what hope is there for change?
DN
While led by this bunch of self-serving hypocrites the only change is going to be negative.
