experience & sabbathing

we can't simply bypass experience ...

our logic
learning
addiction to information
in ever-smaller bites (and bytes)
ever-increasing desire to be titillated 24/7
... .. .

there is the stuff of experience
that can't be had elsewhere
kinda like the protein in red meat
we can substitute but it's not the same

experience
learning life's truths first-hand
in the crucible of life's experiences

when we rely on youth's
energy
intelligence ...
arrogance ?
we dismiss the wisdom
that comes from experience
and make our selves the poorer

we can't seem to chill anymore
unless we induce it with alcohol or drugs
or entertainment
we exist in tension

sabbath lost

no more sense of rest
introspection
reflection
consideration
meditatation
relaxation

doctor to the soul

peace

as i sort out the madness

work back to ground zero
look for reality
behind what's in-my-face
the fluff
and glitter
and mud
of life

sabbathing
healing
Godward

'go and do the same'
