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?

But the yellow dot was not a dot :)(in your pic)....if chaos were colorful lines then the yellow dot will be the peace "fruit" it produce :)....
i admit the yellow dot is hard to see. it is below the yellow line....
a dot of peace...how would that impact the chaos?
i admit the yellow dot is hard to see. it is below the yellow line....
a dot of peace...how would that impact the chaos?
The chaos couldn't know the existence of the peace dot ....becos you had make it hard to see ....does that mean, in every chaos ....the peace dot will always be that small...then again, if the peace dot is make bigger....would we still notice the colorful lines ??
s.a., that is an interesting statement.......chaos does not know of the existence of peace............dot............
is the dot of peace as large as a line of chaos?
and if there are colors in peace as well as in chaos, then, where does that take us?
A thot surface....colors of peace ...and lines of chaos ...can happen to be a "rainbow"...right?? Just like God gave Noah...the peace to come out of his Ark :)....haha...peace dots making up the lines of chaos :)
so peace contains within it the elements of chaos....
hmm ;)....
and hmmm........contains within it?
huh?? ...hmmm....means thinking lor :)...and hmm...means agree ....and lastly....hmmmmm...means taste very nice :)...haha :)
so hmmm is...colorful....
then, hmmmmm....means very colourful :)
"very" because it is all the more colorful because it is both the line and the dot...
and a line exists with the dot and vice versa...
hmmmmm.....
