celebrating the art of paradox

delving into the wisdom of absurdity in whimsical way
this blog is about paradox.
through my questions, i hope to encounter the paradox within belief, that place where there is not one answer but many contradictory ones.
each question, each drawing is an invitation to join me in allowing what appears absurd to take us to a wisdom beyond linear thinking.
as long as we question, we are free. free to see, to feel and to express who we are. and to connect collaboratively with one another.

"the emperor's new clothes" by hans christian andersen
this fairy tale has been a companion to me as i have traveled through my life.
briefly, it is about an emperor who was deceived by two tailors who said they were making a set of clothing out of a "dream" fabric. in reality, they used no fabric at all. to make their scam complete, they announced that only those who were wise enough would be able to see the beautiful clothing. and so, no one, not even the emperor, admitted to being unable to see it.
wearing his new "clothing", the emperor paraded through his kingdom. no one questioned his appearance; no one wished to appear less than wise.
until a small child asked, "why is the emperor not wearing any clothes?"
so it is that i ask, if i question rather than believe i am wise, what will i see?

Haven't you learned to count yet?
Just kidding...if you want to learn to count, would you choose the singing way to learn or would you just start to count?
and if i simply recite the numbers, will they also sound like a song?
To recite...to recite? Then it will be a non-existent poem
that i would hum?
Only a crazy person in love with numbers would hum and understand them, wouldn't him?
is to be in love then to hum.....?
What is what makes a song to be a song? Is to hum what makes a song to be precisely a song?
No, it's to be crazy the same of to be in love.
if that is crazy then what is not crazy?
To do not believe, to do not dare, to do not try to hum numbers...to say there is imposible things.
Is not crazy to think there could exist something sane?
insanity is believing in sanity......
or maybe it's redefining " sanity" and "crazy"?
what do the words mean, after all?
Words are from the air and they go to air then.....
then to count out loud in words is to glide in the air currents?
Wouldn't it be just another happening in life?
Words, air...the same...nothing
yes. the same and nothing.
as well as the diversity of numbers and the infinity they represent.
or don't represent.
That they represent...yes.
what is it that numbers don't represent?
Feelings, thoughts...beatings, maybe?
numbers can be associated with so many things.....i am reminded that this computer because of zero's and one's enables me to communicate with you.....
Y exactamente encontré lo que buscaba.
Thank you.........thanks numbers
ah. thank you as well.
