Things That Give Me Hope In Humanity Part II
September 22, 2008“It is so nice to be awake and asleep at the same time.”
It is these sorts of unintelligible sentences that immediately irk my sense of contradiction yet hold a truth. Perhaps there is not such a schism between our notion of awake and asleep… perhaps one can be both. It still remains to be seen whether such a state could be profitable but simply hearing this counterintuitive sentence as a truth has awakened within me an important question. I think it is somehow linked to radical freedom, consciousness, and perhaps even thought.
I wonder if she even knows she said it… or if it had this sort of effect on me… or perhaps she thinks it was just a dream she had.
