ENTANGLEMENT How easily we are enamored by colors! What a sucker we are for pleasing shapes! You may practice years of meditation and hone your senses, entering exalted states. But at some moment when you least expect it an illusion will snare you, then declare with gleeful jest: human hubris invariably results in a mess! Cantara: We have to accept that we are often blind, biased, and incorrect about many things. That's simply the human condition! Chris:   Agreed. We should be cautious about any person claiming to have 'absolute truth'. Miok:   Absolute arrogance exists, but there is no 'absolute truth' mere humans can perceive. Kasim: (smiling, then slowly sipping some coffee) Feyerabend would be laughing in his grave. You've just made an absolute statement, breaking your own logic. ===================================================================================== from Heart Scenes: Emotional Landscapes via Art, Poetry, & Prose by T Newfields Summary: A digital collage, conversation, and pseudo-poem about human entanglement.
