As a Matter of Fact

i’m only something til i am no more ~ then nothing just like before 

but all that matter i was before ~ will matter once again and more 

ergo something will be restored ~ nothing really matters therefore

Panagiota Romios Date: 5/6/2023 7:05:00 AM I hope to meet you on the other side))) Was watching the coronation at Westminster. People look so axcited in the UK today. I enjoyed seeing their awesome smiles.nice to see happy crowds, Pangie Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/6/2023 8:32:00 AM Who knows Pangie, with matter changing to energy and back again, anything is possible, I live in Ireland myself, the coronation is not such a big thing here, but I’m sure many will be watching on tv like yourself, thanks so much for stopping by, cheers David

Tom Cunningham Date: 5/2/2023 3:01:00 PM Plenty to think of in this one David, where did we come from and where are we going, I don't believe death is the end of us. Even with all the research that's being carried out, they're still no closer to finding out all the answers. Tom Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 3:14:00 PM I know you don’t believe death is the end Tom, neither do I, we just see the bigger picture differently, and does it really matter, not one iota, that bard thingamajig believes he knows all the answers and they total zero, if that was the case there never would be anything, no space no life, but we all know there is, he just cancels out himself, cheers David

I Am Anaya Date: 5/2/2023 2:30:00 PM It's a fact, again you've managed to tease my mind! As usual, a pleasure to read you! Some hold grudges, and never complain, then when the time is right, slam! Now it is time to move on and leave those silly rabbits and hole's behind! Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 2:48:00 PM Heya Anaya, I’m delighted my Monoku teases your mind, yes indeed move on, it’s what I’m trying to do, as you can see my thoughts here are on a universal eternal scale, abstract in hope perhaps, but hope in itself exists and is very real, cheers David

Lin Lane Date: 5/2/2023 1:45:00 PM Are we assembled at birth, and after death, taken apart? Reborn again, but perhaps not in the same form? And what we were before... well, that doesn't matter any more. Matter is mass and takes up space... in baseball a batter. In some, it's a Mad Hatter. Some would be better off if no longer intact. Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 2:19:00 PM We have to try be realistic and positive, the alternative is that all consuming black hole, but not the galactic supermassive ones which I love and dream about! Lin Lane Date: 5/2/2023 2:11:00 PM I see your points and lowered the stakes when I fell into the rabbit hole. j/k Being positive is a lot less stressful than trudging around and shouting, "The sky is falling!" David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 2:05:00 PM Hey Lin, you’re going down a rabbit hole here, well that makes two of us, I’m probably mad as a hatter, but not shouting from the treetops, just trying to be pragmatic and positive with a little hope, rather than spreading doom, cheers David

Gary Radice Date: 5/2/2023 1:17:00 PM That's a clever write David that I had to take my time over to fully appreciate its messages. I often wonder if 'being dead' is the same state as 'before birth'. There is a message of hope however attached to your monoku which I really like. Cheers - Gary Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 1:35:00 PM Heya Gary, I knew what I wanted to say before writing this one, and you’re right I believe being dead is the same state as before birth, I’m not dismissing what others believe, but this is my take on existence and indeed it’s message is one of hope, I was surprised it turned out so uniform with syllable count, rhyme, and length, I must’ve hit on some equation lol, cheers David

Jan Allison Date: 5/2/2023 12:56:00 PM excellent ink David xx Login to Reply David Kavanagh Date: 5/2/2023 1:20:00 PM Thank you Jan I was delighted how this one came together it’s almost an equation in my mind, I hope more people understand exactly what I’m saying, cheers David
