And my vision shut down for a little bit...

I have been doing some research on the brain lately; fascinating stuff. One of the things I found out recently is that whenever you have an "aha moment" a great idea or some sort of epiphany, the right middle part of your brain explodes with electric signals and sends it to all parts of your cerebral cortex. The most interesting thing, however, is that at the same time this happens, the back part of your brain, which is in charge of vision, shuts down for a little bit. So I have titled this entry as it is because... you got it! I had an idea, an "aha moment", an epiphany. Sitting in my room after work, writing down my work schedule for the next week and listening to a TED talk: Sarah Kay. She discovered poetry but more importantly she discovered her own. She said: "I can write about the things only I can write about". And that struck a cord. For most part of my life things have always been about what others want and what others like and what others prefer and how people can like me more. Well, now since they are not, I can finally write about what I want to write about. I can finally write in the way that I want to write, do the things that I want to do, tell the stories only I can tell. And I will. I will tell stories about very many things. And I will so unashamed.

... And then after those electric signals were sent all over my brain, and the back part shut down... it came back up. And it did so that I can write this post and so that you, perhaps could have an aha moment and grace this world with the ideas, personality and creativity your Creator embedded within you. Be blessed.

Quiet

When the world is quiet
currents of living waters flow
through my brain
and they recycle
over and over again
seeming purer but really
 more confident.

My eyes say: flow.
