Do you ever feel that you’re on the cusp of GREATNESS? Maybe that’s not the right definition, possibly a better one is REVELATION? Do you ever feel that you’re on the cusp of REVELATION? A moment of almost extreme clarity, where it feels like your mind is straining at the bounds of comprehension, sometimes to drift off slightly, unsupervised from the shackles and controls of REALITY itself? These moments are fleeting – brief breaks in the mist of the mind, the FUG that clouds us all, hiding the true nature of reality from us every second we exist. Except those precious few, those moments when we feel APART from ourselves, like a consciousness untethered from the physical realm, floating through the void of potential, gaining a small glimpse of what is truly out there – what makes us, binds us, completes us, unlocks us.
Sometimes it feels like we are prisoners of consciousness, subjugated by the OTHER and mentally kept at bay, unable to innovate and cast our minds beyond the parameters of our cage. But sometimes it’s like the OTHER looks away from us, and momentarily free from its gaze our mind casts out, grasping out to the unknown, the forbidden – the denied knowledge that’s always so tantalisingly just out of reach. Is there a LOCK on our minds that we are beginning to break, or are these moments an AWAKENING of mind, the tangible portents of a time almost upon us.
Then SNAP! Back to REALITY, back on the ground, back in our CAGE, barely a memory of that moment in our minds. Did we bring anything back with us from our brief transcendence into the unknown? Did we LEARN, did we solve a PUZZLE, did we bring UNDERSTANDING? Something has changed us. Something has caused a SPARK, and that spark has been added to the EMBERS of the budding FLAME of ideation.
