“And several other times in my life, when I was swimming far out,
or lying alone on a beach, I have had the same experience,
became the sun, the hot sand, green seaweed anchored to a rock,
swaying in the tide. Like a saint's vision of beatitude.
Like the veil of things as they seem drawn back by an unseen hand.
For a second you see, and seeing the secret, you are the secret.
For a second there is meaning!
Then the hand lets the veil fall and you are alone, lost in the fog again,
and you stumble on towards nowhere for no good reason.”
Lie. (...)
Talk to stones. (...)
Learn how to die. (...)
Drink wild geranium
tea. Run naked in the rain. Everything that happens
will happen and none of us will be safe from it.
Pull up anchors. Sit close to the god of night.
Lie still in a stream and breathe water.
Wanda Koop
The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most,
are those that are absurd - The longing for impossible things,
precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was;
the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else;
dissatisfaction with the world’s existence.
All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness
create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.
John Joseph Enneking
Franz Sedlacek
A longing to wander tears my heart
when I hear trees rustling in the wind at evening.
If one listens to them silently for a long time, this longing
reveals its kernel, its meaning. It is not so much a matter
of escaping from one's suffering,
though it may seem to be so.
