Just Listen

Have you ever been someplace and you don’t know where you are? Yet you are ok with not knowing and still knowing there is something that feels good. Even if said thing may seem unidentifiable maybe confusing but also true. Can I just trust the feelings that you make arise? I say I don’t know where they come from or the intentions behind them. Are they honest? Are the true? Are the sound? Do they make sense? Are they risky? Does it work for me? If the answer is seemingly yes and there are somethings not fully understood other than how you know you feel, even if you don’t know why. Can you be willing? Can you be trustworthy? Can you have faith? Trust? To accept what things were at face value. To accept what things were even if they are not the same and evolving. Accept the way you felt in that moment was real. This feels scary are you telling me to trust something I can’t see? Understand something I don’t know. Listen to what may need to be heard and accepting the silence when you wish for noise. Breathe when you feel like it is easier to hold your breath. Continue watching after you believe you saw everything you needed to see? Feel in the moment. And you may come back and feel inevitably or come back and put your feelings on the television so you can watch them. And just watch them. Or then watch them again and give them your own meaning. And think about the meaning behind the meaning or the feeling behind the feeling. Living in a world that doesn’t feel like it is surrounded by information. Then realizing that the entire world is information. Next wondering where that places a being like a human. Not the most intelligent being. But like many other things a processor. But then a separate self from the processing system that allows for an experience to be felt. Internalized. Then interpreter. In this world you are the interpreter. You don’t need to force meaning, understanding, connection or parallels, but you are allowed to simply have an experience first. Then you are allowed to wonder and ask meaning. An answer may or may not come but it is ok because you are allowed to assign a meaning if so be it or just allow one to be. Observer, interpreter, decoder. I am not certain where I am, yet I know it is a good place. So instead of forcing questions that don’t need to be answered now or ever, I be still. I accept the fact that in this moment it feels good.
