Clarity

Numbness.

Clarity, numbness
Clarity, numbness, clarity, numbness...

As I become older, this becomes worse.

"Levels of numbness", "in my brain", "when tired", "doesn't make sense", "all these things go through my mind", "hard to find perspective, to make sense of 'al these things'". "And hard to put 'em into order"

Sometimes I think, that I don't make sense. That's how I think other people feel or think about me.

Actually! A 'feeling'? Is a FEELING numbness - and would a THOUGHT then be clarity'?!

__numbness in my brain__
In my brain, I feel different degrees of numbness, at following places:
In conversations with people, while mingling, while flirting, during social gatherings at home, in a cosy environment, at a beer, at the bar, at friends places, when I'm tired.
And the more I speak, the numbber I feel!

When I think, I think very analytically - and I think that most of my conversations are ananlyical. I find pleasure in discovery, probably cuz clarity appears quickly.

The Quest for Clarity!

__numbness in creativity__
While writting text and paragraphs, I often feel numb. Sometimes I progress fast when writting text; and the content appears clear and meaningful. When clarity is present in my brain, I progress fast. And as a result there is transparence - from my thought, through my writting, to the final self-expressive product. The product does not require explaination - it shines eternally in beauty & expression!

"Incredibly expressive products can be created in the state of clarity."

__numbness in life__
As long as a problem is not solved, numbness occurs. If life is mainly composed of 'solving problems', then numbness occurs most of the time.
Like Researchers. They probably feel numb all the time, cuz they're trying to solve problems all the time. A sense of accomplishment, discovery and clarity only occurs during a very short period of time!

Is numbness comfortable? Humans seek comfort. But do we seek numbness? This thought feels numb.

"To me, clarity is important, and numbness sucks. Because numbness is restriction, and clarity is freedom."

__numbness in conclusion__
Is numbness the tumbling block to ultimate clarity?
Is philosophy a 'rock in the way' to understanding 'it' all?
Is philosophy the tumbling block on the way to logically 'understand' god?
Are we NOT SUPPOSED to understand everything, to understand god?
Is philosophy the pain to understanding everything?
Is numbness the state of humans not being able to communicate to god at any given time?

And clarity is the building block of evolution.

This was written in the middle of the night, at the eclipse of sleep.
I gain self-knowledge by measuring myself in all kinds of moments.

^ I see beauty in people's eyes who are good, simple, and sincere
