a prime example

shadows of the raindrops on my dashboard so beautiful, yet untouchable I wave my hand through them mesmerised unfathomable beauty devoid of meaning or consequence yet thoughts can linger there to be wiped away to see there is sadness within me which I cast aside should it be there or not, I don't know do I tumble into it and have done with it do I tether myself to rocks or clouds for peace of mind

I believe all "feelings' are transient if they become permanent its called an "obsession" or as a mentor of mine once told me "the only constant in life is change"

Perspective is quite wonderful for figuring out feelings as is the idea that I should stop trying to figure out feelings (I might cease to be a poet if I did that though!) Thanks for your comment John, always welcomed

A creative write/picture. Moods/feelings come/go. Guess it is part of life. Have a wonderful day.........

A very introspective piece Dilly, says a lot about how you perceive reality, I often wonder why these type of pointless reflections happen, considering we would never even notice if they didn’t manifest at all, dammit it doesn’t offer much hope, alas I cannot answer your question, on the wondrous cusp again, cheers David

Yeah it’s enough to drive one bananas lol! I cannot do the math on space stuff, but I do understand how it works in my own abstract way:)

Right I've googled it and found that bananas contain antimatter - tried to understand and don't. I don't know how you understand space stuff!

Particle physicists estimate about 100 trillion neutrinos pass right through our bodies every second without interacting whatsoever, I mean come on! some must interact with our thoughts, and trigger these transient feelings!

There's definitely something more in this about the validity of transient feelings can come without cause (or significant cause). Plus something more about waving the hand through with no effect on one side but intermingling with the beauty and wiping away on the other... Ever thankful for your thoughtful comment :) (the mood passed)
