Reception, Deception and Rejection

Father’s day 2015 and self-destruction – by P.K.Odendaal – June 2015.

For Father’s day 2015

Go ask the rolling river (a living thing)
Why it flows in ceaseless motion (from where it originated in the mountain)
To the all-absorbing ocean, (its grave)
Finding there the final goal. (its death)
It will say, I’m driven onward
By a force beyond control. (gravity)
From The Elixir of Love by Donizetti

The cause of rejection in ourselves is mainly from a mistaken identity. We have not identified or found ourselves or our place in this world, or we have not fashioned our identity at youth to someone we admire and respect, mainly for not having such a person on our radar, and the effects of this is devastating in our lives.

Who am I - Part 2 - The Duality of Life.

Are we and our planet (the only) reality?

One thing I know, and that is that this is a half world we live in, a half reality and a half truth. Because we do not know the other half we hide our heads in the sand and pretend there is none other.

Life consists not only of earth, but of the whole universe - not of only ourselves, but of many other creatures - not of only the physical, but also of the meta physical - not only of darkness, but also of light - not only of sin, but also of righteousness - not only of the carnal, but also of the spiritual - not only of the earthy, but also of the sublime. To disregard or ignore the one side is to ignore the total or to live in a fool's paradise.
