I looked at the group of human remains that languished in the corner and smiled at them. It occurred to me that their very presence was testimony to the moral emptiness of the universe and the mechanical brutality with which it destroys the parts it no longer needs. ↗

Civilization grew in the beginning from the minute that we had communication - particularly communication by sea that enabled people to get inspiration and ideas from each other and to exchange basic raw materials. ↗

As we sail about our lives, conflicts arise as emotions are eradicated by sadness and anger. Fireworks of terror, love, and loss fill the once clear sky. And yet, humans are clueless to see what awaits them as they continue to wallow into self-pity. Each day means gaining new insight and developing maturity. Each day means making plentiful mistakes and befuddlement. Each day means falling in love and betraying others. Each day means one day closer to death. We want to continue living, yet we want to die. We want to love, yet we want to hate. We can say that humans are contrary. ↗
