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?

When the entire universe were growing out of the top of my head, would you think there will still be space to speak to you about black holes ...or don't you think that how could black holes then be there ??
If I were a student of universes, I probably would study them too
would you speak to me of what you could see or what destroys what you can see?
yet, are black holes part of the process of universes coming into existence?
can we have that which is without that which takes away?
Basically, i am not a believer of black holes ...but i am a believer of a trinity God ...who is bring a world into harmony ...the kingdom comes, thy will be done ....therefore i will not talk about black holes ...but i will focus on humanity...how to bring people into right thinking of letting this world a better habitat for generations to come ....and if there is existence of black holes ....maybe in my ignorance i would not want to think of it :)....
perhaps there are "black holes" on earth. that which consumes everything near it.
if i had a universe growing out of my head, there might be disharmony as well. but if i know it is there, maybe i could choose to express the new stars being born.......the harmony, as you say, s.a.,............
What a thought, Anne :)...thanks for the new perceptive :)....ya,ya...new stars being born :)....Well, even the universe is in disharmony could there be harmony in my head ...thus able to do something to curb the disharmony ??
is harmony about knowing that disharmony is a part of life...........?
I would rather ask to do something about the disharmony and not just to accept that disharmony, as a part of life ...:)...then there is always two sides of the coin...if we do not have disharmony ...then do we know about harmony??? Then,again history taught us about the consequences and results of the past events...thus we could wisely draw out what actions we suppose to take :)
and aren't there times when what once seemed like disharmony become regarded as harmony?
