Inhabits the skin
It hurts and it bleeds
It is open to infection
It is marking me
Blotchy, it slowly expands
it itches and irritates
It gets sticky
In the morning
Its moist in the evening
Bandages didn't work
It needs the open air
It needs to be seen
I see it scabs
hopeful dryness
Only for it to weep by dusk
Daily routines require many actions, some that you can feel unhappy about.
This unhappiness you silently equate with pain.
Your body requires consistant exercise, the less you do the more the body hurts and ailments spring up. When you exaggerate exercise, it's pain, or quite literally the pain of injury.
Your job is full of situations that create emotional pain and often severe bother. The kind of hurtfulness that if felt in a strong enough way will push you into acting in your interest. For example finding a new job, in the face of feeling completely outraged, then getting either a greater salary to compensate for the pain, or else more freedom.
Your interests. the things you have pledged yourself to study or spend time doing in your recreation time. These are usually an escape from your professional reality. Allowing yourself to turn off from the working hours.
Does everyone hate their job. Of course not. But a challenging career comes with pain, only an ignoramus believes otherwise. Job satisfaction usually comes when you have learned from your pain.
Home responsibility. Whatever role you play in a relationship, you will find pain within it. A strange denial might rise up within you, arguing that you feel no such pain. But pain is kind of like a garden, weeds can often be slight irritations you force yourself to ignore. But arguements that threaten your lifestyle can feel like established trees growing into your powerlines or breaking through a window during a storm. Forgive the romantic metaphors. If you ignore your pain, the consequence will be more pain!
Pain doesn't just have meaning, it is a great teacher. We grow wise from pain. Personal lessons affect us deeply in a world where people care little for the advice of others. Personal lessons, like those that sum up to "I'll read the fine print next time." or "I'll choose a more realistic investment." etc help us to grow in awareness. It is only when we ignore our pain that we inevitably repeat our mistakes.
Simple guide.
1. Pain can edit your life, being the reason you choose one action over another.
2. Pain teaches us where our limits are, this is information.
3. Pain forces awareness, comfort lulls people to sleep, pain awakens us.
4. Pain reminds us of other's suffering as well, when we don't know other's pain, we also cannot empathize with them. Being able to feel other's pain opens us up to their world. Beyond just information, you comprehend their visceral reality.
5. Pain becomes familiar and we can become more resilient in life, acquiring or achieving things through enduring those pains. Putting ourselves to the test.
6. Pain exposes false people or institutions, if you read the pain someone makes you feel with their dishonesty, you will discern it is not worth continuing with those people or places. pain comes before awareness.
7. Pain sharpens the intellect, it shows us how theory doesn't equal real life. When we try to apply things that don't work for us in real life, pain is the corrector, telling us that the theory isn't working. it has us examine what is not working.
8. Pain teaches us to be careful, whenever we are cooking or cleaning, the level of carefulness is often a result of small but succinct situations we hurt ourselves in, by accident. Our brain records and usually learns from these faux pas.
9. Pain creates the contrast for satisfaction, without the duality, there would be no meaning in the world. Simplicity of a painless world wouldn't make things more interesting, everything would become incredibly boring.
10. A valuable lesson in pain is when you reach the realization you cannot control everything inside your world. Things can hurt you and you cannot necessarily prevent them. However, you can gain a better feeling for the things you really control, and act on them. learning to accept those things that are completely out of your hands.
In almost all of the examples pain is only the alarm. You must be aware to understand and learn from the implication of the pain. Those that believe life should be painless are feeling more pain than those who know the truth. Pain is meaning, pain is truth.
Manwa: Under the eye means the known, the possessed.
Syg: Under the eye means the unknown, that which can be possessed.
BIP: Floating inevitability.(Floating not always in the right place at the right time, but can line up, can be reached.)
Mil-10: Progress of a dream(measured and structured)
Manwa is stability, sustainable growth. wholesomeness and logic.
Syg is the chaos of emotion and passion, feeding growth then starving it in absence.
Manwa is there to save us, when Syg has run out.
Your syg is an amalgamation of desires. Not only do the things you desire approach and distance themselves from you, your own intensity within each desire peaks and drops based on your mood and events that provoke your emotions in real life.
If you understand this entirely, you can also understand why most desires just stay desires.
Manwa is more sacred than Syg, but Syg distracts you and pulls you away from Manwa,
BIP and Mil-10 are like huge containers in your garage once full they get sent out like physical mail to declare certain things about your life. Status or figuritive champion podiums for the trophy giving ceremony. They are the long term goals that grow by your routines and systems.
All of your responsibilities
all of your desires
the wonderful life you build
See if we can build a place
A place for future meetings
A place for space and voice
in your haste and occupation
Recieve the great blessing
You steady man
People´s mistakes are not evil
There's a time for renewal
A great time in the future.
two feet leaving the mat of the trampoline
into the air feeling the body slow
then descend back to the mat
which streches downward under weight
Once again body bouncing upward
The motion amuses sensation
Juicey life licks the tongue
Heat finds a home in the spine
A vida suculenta lambe a língua
O calor encontra morada na espinha
A testa franzida inspira a dúvida
As veias da panturrilha pulsam no ritmo do pânico
Sal, metal, suor e ar
Olhos sem fôlego seguem o rastro do oxigênio!
O desejo se enrosca no aconchego da medula
O corpo aprende o pulso na sensualidade violenta
O aroma arrasta a memória pelas veias nasais
Coração, pulmões, nervos, vísceras cochicham e conspiram
A pele prova o ambiente usando o suor como sonar úmido
Movemo-nos antes de nomear a chama que perseguimos
Dê permissão aos olhos sem fôlego
Para encher os pulmões de fogo
Thompson swallows tablet down clean
Juice hits palate, obedient
He practiced the swallow
The tongue still resists
Stomach acid works at it
His faith in the potency
Thompson reads the dosage
Tolerance starts to hinder effect
Afternoon Thompson overdoes it again
The same pain springs up
over pressured, neglecting his state
poor timing
The ache returns quietly
Familiar enough wrinkled brow
Quasi-panic calf veins shove
breathless he gets up
Another tablet down the hatch
same color, same weight
Body refuses to let it take effect
As thompson repeats the loop
