28 Apr 2023 1 minute read 0 comments The Virtual Idealist

I'm awake, but I feel like I'm dreaming, Lost in a world that's ever-changing, The lines between reality and fantasy, Blurred and twisted, oh so randomly.   Everything around me seems surreal, As if I'm living in a world of ideal, Colors are brighter...

Old

28 Apr 2023 1 minute read 0 comments The Virtual Idealist

I wake up each morning, feeling a little bit old, My body aches, my bones creak, and my story is told, Of years gone by, of memories made, And I can't help but feel, a little bit weighed.   The mirror shows lines, etched deep on my face, And wrinkles...

I wake up each morning, with a vow and a plan, To change my habits, and become a better man, To break free from the chains, that hold me back, And embrace a new path, without any lack.   But as the day wears on, I find it tough, To stick to m...

I woke up late, with a start and a fright, My alarm had failed me, in the middle of the night, I rubbed my eyes, and looked at the clock, Realizing I'd missed it, what a terrible shock!   I jumped out of bed, in a hurry and a rush, Trying to make up,...

Dog Walks

My faithful friend, my loyal hound, Together we explore, the world around, From rolling hills, to mountain peaks, Through forests deep, and crystal creeks.   We roam through fields, and open meadows, Where the wildflowers grow, in colorful rows, And...

In The Early Morning Light

In the early morning light, As the sun begins its gentle flight, The warm hues of dawn, meet the blue of night, A wondrous sight, that fills us with delight.   The stars twinkle, their light still bright, As they bid the sun, a fond goodnight, Their...

In the space between this moment and the next… there is the truth. On Monday, the 24th of April, I began my discussion of Michel Foucault’s work on aesthetics vis-à-vis his ethical work. Today, I will be continuing that analysis. What I find most int...

Risks

26 Apr 2023 1 minute read 1 comment The Virtual Idealist

To take a risk, is to take a chance, To step into the unknown expanse, To face the fear, that holds us back, And find the courage, that we lack.   For life is short, and time flies by, And if we never try, we'll wonder why, We never dared, to take th...
