More From Ralph Waldo Emerson

The influence of the senses have in men overpowered the thought to the degree that the walls of time and space have come to look solid, real and insurmountable. .. yet time and space are but inverse measures of the power of the mind. man is capable of abolishing them both.
Wall Real Men
But as van casually directed the searchlight of backthought into that maze of the past where the mirror-lined narrow paths not only took different turns, but used different levels (as a mule-drawn cart passes under the arch of a viaduct along which a motor skims by), he found himself tackling, in still vague and idle fashion, the science that was to obsess his mature years - problems of space and time, space versus time, time-twisted space, space as time, time as space - and space breaking away from time, in the final tragic triumph of human cogitation: i am because i die.

I call the light and high aspects of my being spirit and the dark and heavy aspects soul. soul is at home in the deep, shaded valleys. heavy torpid flowers saturated with black grow there. the rivers flow like warm syrup. they empty into huge oceans of soul. spirit is a land of high white peaks and glittering jewel-like lakes and flowers. life is sparse and sounds travel great distances. there is soul music, soul food, and soul love... people need to climb the mountain not simple because it is there but because the soulful divinity needs to be mated with the spirit.

Space expands or contracts in the tensions and functions through which it exists. space is not a static, inert thing. space is alive; space is dynamic; space is imbued with movement expressed by forces and counterforces; space vibrates and resounds with color, light and form in the rhythm of life.

The last few years i became a lot more into sports. growing up, the sports i liked were independent sports, like skateboarding. i was really into skateboarding, and not necessarily team televised sports.

Competitive sports keep alive in us a spirit and vitality. sports teach the strong to know when they are weak and the brave to face themselves when they are afraid; to be proud and unbowed in defeat, and yet humble and gentle in victory; to master ourselves before we attempt to master others; to learn to laugh, yet never forget how to weep; and to give the predominance of courage over timidity.

What better way to get to know a culture than to go there and learn their sports?
Sports Culture
In modern society most of us don't want to be in touch with ourselves; we want to be in touch with other things like religion, sports, politics, a book - we want to forget ourselves. anytime we have leisure, we want to invite something else to enter us, opening ourselves to the television and telling the television to come and colonize us.

I used to love the election season'cause it's kind of fun. everyone makes a big sport out of it with all these different news stories and everything. i like it better now that everybody knows all the candidates from the past 15 years. but it does get really ugly. it's ugly and it's pugilist.
