Yes. Abhilasha and I were discussing this one day. How one takes these words in is a matter of perspective.

i am thinking of a platform, and words are made upon the platform. not its source. thanks again, i am going to try and match your writes with visuals, it helps.

Avant-Garde,

The hardest habit for me to break (well, one of them), is the desire to grasp a fleeting moment of consciousness and express it in words.  I think the thing I am trying to express evaporates, or I only catch a fragrance of the thing, when I try to put it into words, because then as soon as I have described what I think it is, I have prevented it from being something else.

It is very hard to sit with uncertainty and mystery.

It is an interesting thing to ponder.

behind each word...
there is a meaning...the deeper you will go, the more you will extend the meaning of a word...

Maybe you were visited by one of the Muses.

They do drop by every once in a while but are easy to miss.

Avant -
Excellent work! But Kabbalahlists might challenge on the concept of "mere words".
