We live in the spaces defined by our cultures.
Some of us expand inherited houses to palaces,
some – narrow them to defensive forts,
which then have to be lit by funeral pyres.

The closer you approach a source of light above,
the deeper you plunge into the dark.

In relationships you are paid in kind.
You invest emotionally – you get love or hate.
You invest time and effort – you get attention.
You invest formally – you get a proper spouse.
You invest financially – you get an expensive divorce.

Ideas permeate cultures like rings on the water;
the stone someone threw is gone, submerged,
but the ripples go on and on,
slowing down where the water is thick and marshy,
amplified by resonance and creating new patterns where they meet waves from other stones…
There is almost nothing more powerful;
while there is water the ripples will go on,
where there is water – the ripples will get there,
sooner or later…

Don’t make unnecessary choices,
it really doesn’t matter what colour shoes you are wearing today!
