The wanderer

a.
There must be a place that
feels exactly like home, but not home.
There must be a phrase that 
Sums up all the feel-good emotions
that I so want to banter about.
There must also be the warmth that I always needed.

b.
Every step I put requires the strength 
Of wanting.
I wander. I get lost. I wander. I find.

c.
Every play has 3 parts to it.
The beginning. Feels terrible.
The interval. Realization and the urge to get closer.
The end. Finding the familiarity.
The more I get lost, the more I find a part within me that I barely knew existed.

So to make it sound vibrant, we thought, after several discussions on the location that we were going to the making fi...

'Ship of Theseus'- An allegory of The Paradox

The answer to the seemingly never-ending quest for the purpose of life, in its reality, has no purpose as such, except it has.  Inquisitive being that Human is has always tried to pose questions for the things that were seemingly larger than himself. When he did find answers that were apparent, convenient, and limited- but not the truth, he settled. Evolution happened, as it should, so did the further quest in search of the truth, and thus, a philosophy ideated. To make it understandable of where I am heading towards, infamous work of Plato 'The Allegory of the cave'  serves as a substantial analogy that he makes of how the philosopher is like a prisoner who is freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall are not reality at all, for he can perceive the true form of reality rather than the manufactured reality that is the shadows seen by the prisoners. The inmates of this place do not even desire to leave their prison, for they know no better life. T...
