The Mystery... Honoring and Acknowledging

The path I continue to walk on... Attempting to honor and acknowledge The Mystery seems to be an ongoing theme... The desire to depict, to jot down those unconscious impulses rising from the imagination... To acknowledge those forces that are stronger than an individual's will. I recall that many years ago I used to often say "volition is not pure"... and somehow I keep revisiting that theme and how it relates to our treatment of ourselves and other people... how it relates to moral judgment or non-judgment... how it relates to coping, to understanding, to acceptance... and to surrender.

In my mind The Mystery... the many forces of the unconscious, while not blatantly obvious or visible... these forces are bigger than any single human individual. I think perhaps all that can be done is try to document or put together a sliver of what is revealed (without trying to grasp or possess)... and if there are forces pushing one to pay attention, then perhaps all one can do is do their best to go along for the ride... I may not be responsible for what arises out of my imagination, but a part of me feels like it's important to somehow let what comes up shine in the material physical world... to share that part of our world...
