THE ART of Un-BECOMING....again.


And he sat. Sat wondering. 
Sat sitting on the idea of becoming. 
Sat sitting on the idea of becoming again. 


Once again he sat sitting on the idea of becoming anew what he had always been except this time sitting wasnt going to work. 


He noticed that in sitting on ideas they became flat as the space between the seat and his notions...and he noticed the silence that came with becoming again...he wondered if, BECAUSE of his unfavorable first response to the silence, if he had ever truly become at all.
"Of course" he thought..."Of course I've become something! It is IMPOSSIBLE to be nothing! In being nothing are you not something even if only in title of being "NOTHING"?"...
"Fine" he said. "Aren't we quite the philosopher this evening"....type "LOL" so they don't think you're taking yourself too seriously...LOL! :)....


DAMN. Did I type that out loud?


How many times have I become something? How many times have I sat in the silence that predates becoming and admired what has already been? Not many.
So this commentary is a small recognition of the often under appreciated silence that comes right before the becoming.


It is my hope that this silence will better prepare me for the commotion ahead.
