Out of my Mind...

Day 16

In terms of your artistic/writing craft, comment on the following idea:

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious". ~~Einstein
and
"What shakes the eye but the invisible?"~~ Theodore Roethke


Mystery shapes the possibilities that lie ahead. With the unknown everything can be known. Possibilities are endless and interesting. 

Sometimes on dark blustery nights you turn your head absently in deep thought, your eye catches a barely visible form in the ether. What was that? You self enquire, then the thing is cast in to the ocean of un remembering with only a trace of it's ripples of existence, gently agitating the surface water of the mind. The thing whatever it was, wasn't  fully formed so it has no life with us. Great ideas sometimes pass by like this, an incredible light sparks up, but we are shopping, or half asleep and don't get to a piece of paper in time and the thought disintegrates like rice paper flung, floating on the surface of the water. Seen vividly, then as quickly melted away. No cohesive substance left to make anything out of it.
