The times.


 

I weep silently, for the free fall, the little things that we offer to people, for the help, the shoulder and still, the time; yet having not known for what reason, but for how we grew up. This is for the pristine minds, the beauty of the heart, that, also means the world to many; for the little actions of goodness; in times of trouble, hardships; no single word can mean it.



Then there is the other side; one that strives to eat out the good, bent on doing harm, always brewing something sinister... This goes out, to the world; that feels every cry and no pain... From a distance, the heavens watch, the stars twinkle, yet, there remains a laid path for everybody; Fate. I call on destiny, a realm that often is confusing... For you who has made it, bow and give credit, to that who, what deserves.

Human bond, a specific path that is often mistook. Watch us, watch them, one time, all will come to pass. And for the inaudible cries, for the stifled whispers and the resounding memoirs, mankind will forever be a kind.

For that old and lost script, the unsaid words... It forever fades, to a present that will be gone tomorrow. Live life and do good out of it. As for this part of the world, sometimes we got to bow out.
Gerry.

Intentionality.

For starters, happy new year. I have been mulling on doing a piece on intentionality for a while and, for sure, I have mentioned a bit of it to those that I have struck deeper notes of life with.  Well, in brief, intentionality is a philosophical concept that refers to the capacity of the mind to be directed toward an object, idea, or state of affairs. It is a fundamental aspect of consciousness, enabling individuals to have thoughts about something, engage in purposeful actions, and maintain focus on specific goals or outcomes. Originating from the work of philosopher Franz Brentano in the 19th century, intentionality distinguishes mental phenomena from physical phenomena by highlighting the inherent directedness or "aboutness" of mental states. In everyday life, intentionality manifests in our ability to plan, deliberate, and navigate complex social interactions, as it involves both conscious and unconscious mental processes that guide behaviours and decision-making.

Learning the ropes.

A reset is something that hits you when you least expect it. Just like sickness, it knocks at your door at odd hours, bringing with it a period of great adjustments and shifts.  A bit of a background story, a couple of weeks ago, I was reading an anecdote by Norman Vincent Peale (the father of positive thinking) where the author posits that one should change their thoughts if they wish to change the world.  This got me thinking; all those instances where I have seen people on the streets or in restaurants in seemingly boisterous conversations and showing broad smiles unassumingly made me think that they might be living life happier than mine. I assumed that they were happier than me or even smarter than me. Instances are rife where we sit in our little apartments imagining what it would be like to be someone else.  That feeling that we often behold that everyone around you seems to be doing better than you, or the one where we feel that piles upon piles of decks are stack...

Close your eyes, feel the moment, stay there.

There’s a distant ache, a whisper of something just beyond reach—a longing for the unseen, a familiar yet ungraspable presence. The soul stirs, restless, as though caught in a web of yearning and quiet hope, searching for what it cannot name. Rumi’s words echo gently: "Close your eyes. Fall in love. Stay there." And so, I close my eyes, trusting that this ache, this distant ripple, isn’t emptiness but a bridge. It leads me inward, where contentment exists without boundaries, beyond the need for form or reason. Here, within this sacred quiet, my heart opens to the fullness of things I cannot see but deeply feel—an eternal radiating quiet, a steadfast peace, a silent connection to the unseen. Perhaps the longing is a call to soften, to surrender to the beauty in not knowing. In closing my eyes, I am reminded that some journeys are not about seeking outward but unfolding within. And in this inner space, love holds me still, whispers, and asks only one thing: "Stay here....
