the truth.

and if you took off your glove, what would you feel? would it be the truth? what if your truth and my truth were different?

Miranda said...

I would understand your truth and empathize with you. Our hands would touch and we would feel the same.

What or who seduce you to take off your glove ....will you then feel cold?? Then, should the owner hold your hands to give you warmth ?? If you feel that you need not warmth, and took off your glove, is it you want to feel the owner's hand in real contact with him/her ??

anne artist said...

to take off my glove will be a risk. to feel.........is there not a risk involved? yet, also the risk is what happens to my hand if i wear a glove and dull my senses?

as miranda says, maybe if my hand touches another, then we are both reminded that we can empathize with each other. and then, feel more than what our own hands could bring.

s.a., the question is, as you say, why would i take off my glove? would i be seduced by what seems to be the warmth of another's hand? and if i choose seduction, what will i feel? in the end, will i wear the other person's glove on my hand?

You probably want to see how cold it is, and probably you want to feel free.

anne artist said...

yes, r., if i am without my glove i am free. to experience the cold, the warmth......would i ever feel warmed by the cold?

Sally Ang said...

It all depends on why do you want to be seduced ...was it a part of you, or a whole of you, was it becos of how you feel or becos of how you think, does it benefit you more, or for the good of all if you choose to be seduce, if you are consiciously being seduced, do you think is improving your senses or dulling your senses ...and don't you think wearing another person's gloves...the other person will feel cold ....if you decided to take off your gloves...just do so for the spring and summer ....and put on a pair if is winter :)

anne artist said...

yes.........if i let myself be seduced by another person.......and wear that person's glove...won't that person's hand be cold? and when it touched my hand, all it can feel is a glove..........and not even my glove.

so. yes, s.a., the question is as you say..........why would i want to be seduced?

Raji said...

why wouldn't you want to be seduced?

anne artist said...

it depends on the meaning i give to the word "seduced".

if i am seduced, am in empowered in any way? for the seducer, is it about the seduction, rather than the connection? does the seducer imply that i will be happier if i buy the product or connect personally?

what is seduction, after all?

and if i like your answer, will i be seduced by it?

Raji said...

The seducer does offer you something, and sometimes we are so poorly off that we may take knowingly or unknowingly

anne artist said...

so a choice to enrich our lives could leave us poorer?

what if we redefined "poor"?

Sally Ang said...

Seduce is to let you off your guard, to let you be the raw, weak, real you to present ...so that is why you thought that is empowering ....think it another way, seducing you to take off your gloves ...so that the cold will warm you :), so that you can sense the warmth from the owner instead of having the gloves only ....if seduction ...is personal connection would you be seduced ??

anne artist said...

s.a., i do love what you have said. it is paradoxical that seduction offers us what seems to be a safe place to really be ourselves. a closeness so close that it cannot be other than very far away.

as a result, we find ourselves looking to the cold to warm us. a cold that burns us instead.

can seduction be personal connection? is there such a thing as personal disconnection which still connects us? connection by separation?

Sally Ang said...

Connection by separation...is a hard choice ....but if we are determine that by that separation we will be connected by ways unknown to each other, by thoughts, by living and let live, by faith that never fail ....connection by separation will be much a strong connection that will never be experienced :)

anne artist said...

so, s.a., it is about our attitude toward.......how we define........separate. we have a choice..........

and as you say, we can realize a connection that can go beyond the separation. and if so, perhaps, the harshness of the separation is softened somewhat.

sometimes, it is enough that paths cross and then our footsteps lead in other directions.
