“When emptiness is still, that is eternity. When it moves that is love.” Adyashanti
Like Winter Gulls If love is possible how will it survive when all my self-beliefs, like winter gulls, have migrated south, leaving me with the immutable feeling that meaning has abandoned me in a place where I don't have myself, just a vacuum of abstractions, like the absurd question, if love is possible, how will it describe me.

How will it describe you, a confronting question I find, but perhaps worth waiting for.

Yes, a question, which for me seems more real these days rather than the self-assured teen who has the answers. I love questions.

Have been diagnosed with PTSD, one too many traumas on my yard.

not surprised, get all the care and support you can … and probably time to retire! Is that possible?

yes PTSD will do that, but it’s the impact of diagnosis also! You may have suspected it but having it confirmed, having it said and written on paper still takes time to absorb … take care precious gent!
