There’s Beauty In The Void

We spend our lives struggling, hustling and trying.
When do we ever not wish?
When do we ever not try?
But it requires so much energy, it’s so damn tiring.
Sometimes, perfect bliss is what I long for, there is beauty in the absence, there is beauty in the void.

We see people hurting, we see others crying.
We want to lessen the burden, but still… people continue dying.
Whether it’s emotionally or physically..
There is beauty in the absence of pain, there is beauty in the void.

Our minds keep racing, our hearts keep pounding,
Excitement, anxiety and darkness have all kept us awake at night.
But in that darkness, our minds keep shouting in despair.
There’s beauty in the quiet, there’s beauty in the void.


Take my hand,
Let’s try together.
To make you feel in a better place.
The void is what we avoid the most, because

What is a life filled with nothingness?

There’s no beauty in the void.

This is oh so lovely. 💙

Embracing all of our humanness is where true beauty is. Dark and light and every nuance in between. Not some over positive utopia. My thoughts.

What is the void? The stillness? The nothingness? Or is it a combination of everything?
Very nice lines.

@kimmy159 Human mind is as mysterious as the universe itself. don't you think?
kimmy159 · F
@Renkon Yes! Even with some knowledge it still remains unpredictable and people don’t always respond according to the same patterns. Emotions are also not always logical and also influence those reactions 😁
Renkon · M
@kimmy159 It’s amusing to use the mind to try to understand itself. Will we ever fully unravel its mysteries?

Why did you say at the end that there is no beauty in the void?

@kimmy159

I guess I saw it from taoist and buddhism perspective. No bad nor good in the void. Bad and good fill up space so by definition it is not void if we wish to attach meanings to it.

So no beauty and no lack of beauty either

No oppositions.

That's what I understand by the void.

@Miram When we talk about life and experiences, and it would be experienced as that “void”, would you say that there’s no beauty nor a lack of beauty in that life?

That status quo for me personally would be felt as an absence of meaning~

At this point, I welcome the void. The primordial liminal state.
Thought provoking
@kimmy159 If that was your mission, you passed with flying colours 🌈

Hey philosopher Kimmy.
kimmy159 · F
@SW-User My mood is bordering philosophy today, but I’m no philosopher in general ;)
