I relate so to the sentiments you express here. To wake with no possessions or feel nothing about them is key. And the 'Sea-green mind' is such a evocative concept, and one I share also a favourite hue :) Birdiehophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16895868481085815220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-59359633758291042202015-12-19T09:02:11.164+00:002015-12-19T09:02:11.164+00:00Why, thanks Morelle!

'Innocence and experience' — yes, that's it, I think: the social, exterior self or persona — the one that accumulates possessions, the one that often gets corrupted by hypocrisy, ambition and superficiality — contrasted with the individual, interior self, which may still retain a core of truth and innocence (often revealed through art).<br /><br />Schopenhauer once wrote: 'We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people.'The Solitary Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284354541952038339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8319797996494487653.post-10558918570489882922015-12-15T17:03:29.631+00:002015-12-15T17:03:29.631+00:00You've got my full attention with your poem th...You've got my full attention with your poem this December morning.
