just thinking
thought that comes back again and again:
there are no straight lines in nature. leaves, flowers, trees, insects, animals, hair... nature doesn't draw her big pictures in straight lines. and those connections between atoms and even smaller particles... who knows how those are drawn. yet, we keep looking for straight lines, it's an idea of perfection in line with the perfect circle, the perfect square, the perfect... yet nature which is perfect doesn't create this human idea of perfection or seem to aspire to it.
yes there are straight lines. i don't see them yet i know they're there and they are perfect indeed. straight lines that connect our thoughts, yours and mine.
