A: My faucet was leaking. So I put a bucket underneath it. Funny thing is, at the rate of one drop at a time, the bucket never overflowed.

B: How is it that possible?

A: I'm not really sure, but when I woke up in the morning, the bucket had long been full, and there was only a couple of drops - if any at all - of water on the floor.

B: I guess it only overflows if you put too much in at once.

A: Yes. Which got me thinking, what if the bucket is like my brain, and the water is the amount of knowledge in it?

B: Hmm. So does the filled-but-never-overflowing bucket represents the fact that once you reach the apex of your knowledge, you can't go any higher? Or does it signifies that the expansion of the brain and influx of knowledge is limitless, as long as you add things one drop at a time?

A: It is both of those things.

Passing Through

 

 

I speak and this air around me listens, all of it except for the air that is surrounding me right now.

Blank Start is a journal of random and poignant ruminations. It is written with little audience in mind and few words to spare.
