We might as well be strangers...



Katherine Anne Potter once said; There seems to be a kind of order in the
universe... in the movement of the stars and the turning of the Earth and the
changing of the seasons. But human life is almost pure chaos. Everyone takes his
stance, asserts his own right and feelings, mistaking the motives of others, and
his own.

Human being existence is characterized by the search of an order, the search for endurance through events that keep repeating time after time. A glance at stars is enough to see that there's an order which probably we will never fully understand... and maybe it shouldn't be the final purpose as it has showed for some time that it only creates a distance.

A stare in the universe, to see how all that chaos perfectly fits... we make up all that complexity... just to realize the approach is right up there... simple as a dot... simple a gleam... what that tiny spot can trigger in the human soul... just watch... just listen...

The starry night... the people we may know... every stranger out there... every new encounter is a new discovery... we may try to predict their movement... and yet it is only a possibility... it is a surprise... even our own reactions... even our own motives and feelings... All that control just look for reasonable fit... but reason may not be the only one where one can find that fit... just throw yourself into that big black sky... and see what happens... strangers... in my opinion acquire other meaning... as well as that no-order... one can face our own actions and the movement comes along... fitting movement of uncertainty - certainty... the laws of that movement we may practice even though we may not fully understand it...

I'm so glad... we are strangers when we meet....
