Amidst My Intermittent Nature

The universe used to be so small. 
It used to consist of only three stars in the night sky, 
the trees in my backyard and my thoughts- 
my thoughts that never could recognize themselves. 

Somewhere between the peace of being absolutely still 
and the speed of which I'm always moving, 
my thoughts present themselves over and over again- 
and I realize,
that amidst my intermittent nature,
there is much for me to be gentle for.

From the moment I get up out of bed,
with my eyes partially half closed,
face swollen, morning breath,
and walking reflexively to the restroom 
posed like a zombie-
to the minute I leave the restroom,
face washed, teeth brushed,
and straight to the coffee pot,
where my real morning routine starts,
with a complex personal self-served coffee order,
that I computatively go through without error,
as I'm thinking my thoughts and thinking no thoughts- 
thoughts that don't recognize themselves.

The universe now consist of my intermittent nature,
that is order and disorder, chaos and efficiency,
thoughts and no thoughts,
thoughts that rarely ever recognize themselves.
Amidst my intermittent nature,
I love, hate and rest transparently,
everything and nothing,
because all things simply pass through.

Amidst my intermittent nature, I am my universe.

5 Interesting theories about Humanity

Disclaimer: None of the theories below have been supported by an accredited association lol, strictly Vicky’s mind dives. Life in general, has got to be one of the biggest mysteries my little brain has had the pleasure of thinking about. For creatures who live in a system, governed and regulated, humans truly have absolutely no idea what they’re doing here, for what reason and by whose orders. Humanity has been in existence for eons now, you would think that someone would have figured it out. No one did, but many tried. Today, we have beliefs, religion, and Gods. All because we need an explanation, because we are scared of what lies beyond death, and because nobody truly knows. I don’t argue at all, that the many belief systems we have are false or misleading, but I do agree that it’s all based on faith, because absolutely nobody knows for sure. Faith is basically a way to assure us that even though we don’t know for sure, its true. I understand I may sound like an atheist,

A Perfect Being

What would I do? If I was an author in my own right, living on her own wherever she ends up in the world, I would have a library, full of all the books of the world that tickles my brain and keeps my attention. I would have a garden full of all kinds of plants because I'm not averse to any. I would have white walls and grey lounges, glass tables and mahogany desks and shelves. I'll have colors and I'll have none. My resting place will be in shades of black and grey because colors are mentally too loud  It'll be the biggest room in the house because loud thoughts need to scream. I'll have the perfect patio that opens up into a space not disturbed by beautiful towering trees- only because, I would wish to see the stars at night.  I'll spend most of my nights on that patio,  drinking all the alcohol my body could contain  because it is then that my thoughts recognize themselves.  I act, think, and do transparently, to everyone else and not just myself. I say everyo
