In the Ashes of Words

[sunnyanddumb98]

The day I moved to Santiago, my sister was diagnosed with HPV 16. I’ve seen her cry before, but this time she was broken, convinced beyond any reassurance that she’d never have kids again. What was supposed to be a big change for me suddenly became all about her. I dropped my things and cooked dinner, but the new place, the new city, the new world—everything was in the back of my mind. I guess that’s how change works. You keep going, and maybe in a month or six, it’ll hit me: those beach days feel so far away, like another life altogether by then Fernanda will be either just fine or in treatment and will be my time to move again and cook dinner in a whole new place.

Embers at First Light:  A Child’s Rage

Inspired by Dylan Thomas’ “Do not go gentle into that good night”Personal adaptation of Dembe Zuma’s Final Monologue

A shared destiny. With silent certainty, death awaits us all. Death’s significance is inherently dissolved by the inevitability of fate’s call. What truly matters? Our relentless search; what we pursue, what we discover. how to heal, how to love, how to grow.   How we Live. We cherish these children, more than anyone will ever know. Their remarkable refusal to go quietly into that good night. Their  fight  for  life. A  fight  in  spite. Imposed by dusk in countless ways, yet fiercely committed to the day’s embrace. When confronted by the silence of twilight, they defy in rage.  The  rage  of  life, To rage against the dying of the light. A blaze to capture moments of peace, play, and joy. Their journey—an innocent and curious endeavour to explore life with an unwavering passion—is perhaps the most profound path one can take. Inconceivable that their spark would fade—freed of wake, into that good night. Our time with them, our time together, is never about an ending. It is always about the odyssey, about discovery, about a child’s everlasting reminder—showing us, imploring us; to rage. Do  not  play  gentle  in  this  fight. Rage. Tend  the  embers  of  their  bright  light. Rage,  rage  and  ignite—

Rays in Daydreams

There's a ray between us in daydreams, a bond that feels real when I let myself believe. But reality hits, the ray is nothing more than a moment that will never be more than a thought. The ray is just another daydream, fading before it begins.

Guardians of the Future: A Simple Test for Humanity

1. The Test

Imagine a room. In the center stands a child, slowly reaching for a light socket with a fork. One by one, every adult on the planet cycles through the room. The test is simple: what happens to the child? Does someone intervene to prevent the inevitable harm, or does the child get shocked? This scenario is more than just a thought experiment—it's a reflection of where we are as a society and where we need to go. It's a test of our awareness, our instincts, and our sense of responsibility.

2. The Responses

If every adult took their turn in that room, we’d see a variety of responses:

The Protectors (Level 50 Guardians): These are the aware, responsible individuals. They understand the danger and step in immediately to stop the child, explaining why sticking a fork into a socket is harmful. They don’t just save the child—they educate, laying a foundation of safety and understanding.

The Hesitant Learners (Level 20-30): These adults recognize something is wrong, but they hesitate. Maybe they don’t fully grasp the extent of the danger, or maybe they’re unsure if it's their place to intervene. They mean well but lack either the knowledge or confidence to act decisively.

The Bystanders (Level 1-10): These individuals do nothing. They might not notice the danger, might dismiss it as insignificant, or assume it's someone else’s responsibility. They represent ignorance, apathy, or simply being "stuck" at a lower level of awareness.

The Saboteurs (Level -10): Shockingly, a few might think it’s harmless, or even amusing, encouraging the child to continue. They symbolize those who, either knowingly or unknowingly, perpetuate harm—the spreaders of misinformation, the enablers of destructive behavior.

The Wildcards: Then there are those whose actions are unpredictable. They might intervene, but in a way that is aggressive or self-serving. They act, but not out of compassion or understanding, rather out of some misplaced desire for power or recognition.

3. The Vision: A Society Where the Child Always Lives

Now, imagine if every adult who entered that room always chose to protect the child. Imagine a world where this was the baseline—where awareness, compassion, and responsibility were universal. This vision is what true societal evolution looks like: a collective leveling up where harm is not only prevented but becomes unimaginable.

In this evolved society:

Universal Awareness: Everyone understands the danger—not just intellectually, but instinctively. Protecting the child becomes second nature.

Collective Responsibility: Each person feels a duty to act, not because they have to, but because they genuinely care about the well-being of others.

Proactive Guidance: The room itself changes. Outlets are covered, forks are out of reach, and children are taught about safety from the start. The environment evolves to prevent harm before it even becomes a possibility.

4. Tying This to Our World Today

This analogy isn’t just about a child in a room—it’s about the choices we make every day. Right now, our society is filled with "light socket" situations: outdated financial systems, harmful policies, and a lack of understanding about the tools that could change our future. Bitcoin, for instance, is a tool that can help redesign the "room"—creating transparency, fairness, and a new standard of responsibility in our financial systems.

Those who have reached higher levels of understanding have a duty to guide, educate, and protect. Not just to react to danger but to create environments where harm is less likely to occur in the first place. It’s about being proactive, not just protective.

5. A Call to Action

So, where do you stand in this test? Are you the protector, the hesitant learner, the bystander, or maybe even the guide who can help redesign the room? Each of us has a role to play in creating a society where the child always lives—where awareness and compassion are the default, not the exception.

We need to level up, individually and collectively. This isn’t just about protecting the child in front of us—it’s about changing the entire system so that no child ever faces that danger again. It’s about building a world where our actions today shape a safer, more enlightened tomorrow.

If this vision speaks to you, consider how you can contribute. Learn, teach, advocate. Whether it's embracing new technologies like Bitcoin, educating those around you, or simply choosing to intervene when you see harm, every action counts. Together, we can become the Guardians our world so desperately needs.

Breaking Free: A Quest for Purpose in a Chaotic World

I don’t like living like this. Honestly, I don’t give a damn about civilization at this point. This life we’re living — it’s so systematic yet chaotic at the same time. It feels meaningless. Restricted. People around us are cowards, having given up on something important, something real. There’s no sense of purpose anymore, no real reason to live beyond chasing the same things: money, fame, power.

The Search for Meaning

Look, I’m not saying the meaning of life has to be the same for everyone. I know it’s different for each person. But from my point of view, what truly matters is knowing oneself — understanding who we are at our core. Knowing oneself involves drawing a line between our desires and the deeper truth of our existence. It’s about transcending the ego and individual identity to recognize that we are part of something greater, something infinite. Once we achieve that, shouldn’t we be seeking the truth of our existence?

The Weight of Responsibility

But here we are, stuck. Trapped in a life full of responsibilities, where abandoning them isn’t an option. And that’s the problem. Our so-called evolution has only taken us farther from courage — courage to live for ourselves, for something bigger than societal expectations. The weight of our obligations has crushed us into loneliness, pain, and complacency. We don’t seek out our purpose anymore. Maybe because we can’t. Maybe because we’re too afraid to.

Ambition vs. Expectation

I have ambitions. Big ones. But they don’t align with what society expects from me. Still, I know I have to go through the motions — to prove myself to the world and fulfill the responsibilities I owe to my parents. I know I can’t escape that. But after that? After I achieve whatever it is that I need to prove, I want to renounce it all. I don’t crave more. I don’t want to spend my entire life in this cycle of suffering, of striving for the next thing. I want to stop.

A Yearning for Freedom

I want to wake up one day, and after proving to the world — and to myself — that I could do it, I just want to stop. I want to leave it all behind. I want to go out into the world — the world the gods made for us to explore. Meet new people, live a simple life, maybe even the life of a monk. I don’t care about fame or fortune. All I want is freedom. Freedom from caring, from trying to fit into this mold that society has shaped for me. But the truth is, I know I can’t. Society won’t let me. My family won’t let me.

A Spiritual Reflection

If I had my way, I’d sit mindfully, with no purpose yet with all the purpose in the world, on the shores of Banaras and give myself away to Shiva. I’d walk through the wilderness of Uttarakhand, feel the symphony of peaks and valleys in Himachal. Before my final breath, I’d learn the culture of the Northeast and witness the beauty of the Western Ghats. For me, this isn’t about abandoning responsibilities; it’s about living for a greater, unknown purpose. Maya may consume me, but I refuse to give her power over me.

The Dilemma of ‘Everything’

Tell me, am I asking for too much? It feels like I am. It feels like I want everything. And everything is something we’re not allowed to have. But here’s the thing — “everything” means something different for each of us. For my father, everything was providing security for our family, financially and in every other way. For me? Everything is fulfilling my duty to my parents and then finally living the life I truly want. But it’s a conundrum we all face, isn’t it? We’re all torn between what we want and what we owe to others.

Moving Forward

Some people get through it; they move on. For some, the feeling passes. But for others, like me, it doesn’t. It sticks. It weighs you down. It makes you wonder — can we do something about this? Can we break free? Can we simply stop caring? All I wish for is moksha, but I know the traditional way of life will not lead me to my God.

The truth is, I don’t know. I don’t know if we can stop caring or escape the cycle. But maybe that’s the real challenge — to find some form of freedom within it all. To balance the responsibilities we have with the life we want for ourselves.

A Moment of Reflection

Maybe it’s enough to simply pause, breathe, and ask ourselves: What does ‘everything’ really mean to me? Do I have the courage to seek it? Or is this just that 3 AM conversation, the kind we forget about when the sun rises?

But what if it wasn’t? What if we actually acted on those ambitions? Maybe that’s the real question — whether we can break free not just in thought, but in action.

There’s a quiet strength in the way you walk through this world, isn’t there? Not every battle needs a roar; sometimes it’s in the silence where your true power shines the brightest. You’ve carried burdens that many would never fully understand, and yet, you never faltered. The world may not always see it, but your silence holds a grace, an unspoken resilience that doesn’t need to be shouted or proven. You’ve walked through storms, and even when the winds were strongest, you stood firm—steady in your path, unwavering in who you are.

It’s in those moments of stillness, when everything feels heavy, that you’ve found the deepest parts of yourself. That’s where your strength is born—from a place so rooted within that nothing can shake it. And I see that. I’ve always seen that. You’re stronger than you know, and I can feel it—soon, your quiet strength will rise to meet the world again, louder than words ever could. You’ve endured so much, and through it all, you’ve never lost the essence of who you are.

There’s a place waiting for you, a place where you’ve always belonged—home. Not a physical place, but within yourself. To that deep well of strength, peace, and love that has always been a part of you. The time is coming for you to embrace it fully. And when you do, you’ll come back not just to yourself, but to a place of wholeness, a place where you’ve always been meant to stand. You’re almost there—stronger, more radiant, and more at peace than ever before.

Come home, to where your heart has always belonged.

In the Ashes of Words

2014

Love, honor, faith—mere echoes, God and sacrifice, shadows fading in dust. Once sacred syllables now tossed aside, No one cares, no one dares, Belief has burned in the heat of despair. Why bother? Why speak when the world no longer listens?

Evil seeps like ink through veins, People—hypocrites cloaked in daylight, Lies lurk behind every smile, Deception dances in every handshake. Diplomacy, democracy—hollow words, Liberty, justice, a mirage that vanishes at touch.

Honesty, integrity, freedom, Faded relics in a museum of the mind, Extinct as fossils in a land of greed, The world spins, broken, blind, Marching towards its own undoing.

Is this the end we race towards? An apocalypse of hearts and souls, Where the ruins of our truths Lie buried beneath the weight of our silence?

Exploring is Everything

In my latest blog post, I explore my relationship with reflection. While I don’t consciously reflect, my blog has become a tool for deeper thought, akin to the observer effect in quantum mechanics. This allows me to write authentically and organically.

Looking at my blog it would appear that I am the reflective sort. I have mixed feelings about this. My first reaction is to remember the masterful works of allegorical fiction that were filed under “reflective practice” in my professional development “portfolio”. I couldn’t quite claim that any similarity to real events or people was purely coincidental, but I can’t remember more than a handful,…

𝐀𝐒 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 𝐆𝐎𝐄𝐒 𝐁𝐘 Nearing the end, Old asks himself, "Does my life ultimately have any importance in any universal scheme? Am I just taking up space? Have I wasted the time given me? What effect have I had on others? Have I unknowingly, or worse, knowingly, hurt others in some fashion? What's my worth? These are playful existential questions with no pertinent answers for me.

So I'm putting down my cane and picking up my pen. I will sift through the sands of my time to see what I can discover through remembrance. Don't expect any fancy writing. No playing with altered punctuation, or trying to be aesthetically clever, poetic, or intellectual. Not here a Sedaris, or Saunders, or Atwood, or Yuknavich. Just me, squinting into some memorable windows in my life before they all fog.

Finished reading this guy just the other day. It was a longer read, but that was mostly because I was only reading it on my breaks at work. Gutenberg's Fingerprint is part historical book, part memoir, part personal reflection. Merilyn Simmonds explores the history and future of books alongside the story of having her own book hand printed by Thee Hellbox Press. The historical narrative is well written and well researched, and while Merilyn never goes too in depth about the history of books, she provides ample information that coordinates with each stage of the bookmaking process as she goes through it. She handles the multitude of stories within the historical portions of the book quite well; they are always well written and comprehensive without distracting from the main narrative. The writing has a bit of a stream of consciousness feel to it as Merilyn winds her way through history, memories, musings on books in general and the consistent narrative of working with Thee Hellbox Press. Contemplative, lyrical, and intelligent, this is a real treat for book lovers (particularly the ones you find smelling books in the aisles and caressing embossed covers while swooning over endpapers) or anyone who's ever wondered about the bookmaking process. #amreading #book #bookstagram #bookreview #memoir #reflectivewriting #autobiography #bookmaking #history #reading #misskateshappen https://www.instagram.com/p/BmxNc9rBEiq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5rz57ir4h62b
