Dulce ingenuidad

Deberían conocerse más poetas adolescentes, pues aunque los adultos tienen más experiencia, pocas veces recuerdan las primeras veces... hay más claridad y personalidad formada, no existe tanta incertidumbre, tanta emoción por conocer... tanta INGENUIDAD… Cuerpo y mente abiertos a todo

Orgasmo espiritual… Tranquilidad, paz mental, dormir despierto, cuerpo sensible a cada sensación… lograr que el tiempo corra despacio, con delicadeza… sentir texturas, climas, brisa, escuchar con cuidado, oler la grama, la humedad… Cuerpo con la sensación de no poder ser perturbado nunca… Lograr aislar los sentidos… Olvidarse de la vista… El mismo efecto de un narcótico, pero con cierta serenidad… Lograr escaparse, mente y cuerpo, de cada conflicto… Dulce, sensual, delicado…

La divina ausencia del miedo… La mente en blanco, concentrada en la respiración… Aliviar los dolores, sentir cada vértebra separarse… Sentir como cede el cuerpo al ser dominado por la tranquilidad… Ser capaz de sentir… realmente sentir… Estar en armonía con tu cuerpo… Que tu mente no tenga más ideas que las que en este momento escribes con los ojos cerrados… Que cada experiencia se sienta como nueva, porque la mente está reposando… Regresa, miedo… Y torna todo torpe… Estoy perdida… No querer salir nunca de esto… Que la risa envidie este estado

Meanings of life

When i talk to people i can't help but notice the many meanings the word "life" actually has, and of course the different targets that arise. What's the meaning of life? What's the goal? Have you read anything about Albert Camus? If you know about his notion of the absurd, you'll probably have an answer for this: "You have to find your own meaning". My question came up because i was thinking, what are the different meanings?

There are those whose life can be summed up in the word "survival". It's all about preserving life itself, because if you don't exist what's left to think about? Picture yourself in this position; where everything becomes a menace, every little move has to be planned because the slightest mistake leaves a window of opportunity for the great danger to come and steal your life away. The purpose would be to maintain life at all cost. And i do mean ALL COST.

To some others it's all about living the moment, "carpe diem". This are the kind of people that enhance every opportunity of a good time, always keeping in mind life's too short to be wasted in unpleasant situations. I think they don't know the word "consequence" and if they did they'd probably wouldn't care, it's not worrying about a future that has not yet come.

There are others who live their life preparing for the future; getting good grades, studying a lot, adding things to their curriculum in order to have a great job, allowing them to make a lot of money... for the future. Always thinking about tomorrow and letting today slip away. Having commitment issues when they don't even date. Worrying about their kids' college money when they found out their pregnant.

The stage fans, drama queens, making up stories in a few words, freaking out over a misread phrase or gesture. The rebels, living under the shadow of the other person's thoughts, contradicting everything and anyone to get the great taste of being called a freak, or just different. The kind, always do everything the right and honest way, maybe thinking they'll get an award.

So, what is it really? Living in the past, present or future? Freaking out? Laissez faire? La vida loca?
