We produce and dispose of a plastic bottle just so that we can drink 8 ounces of water. Why doesn’t anyone see the insanity of that?

If the nature of mental health is order, integration, individuality, and that of reality is non-individuality, how can one hope to see reality? — This is a paradox. Yet, there’s an answer.

Obsession with food

In: Rumination

0 comments

Food and drink are great, but this ‘foodie-ism,’ this obsession with meticulously garnered and crafted food & drink in NYC (and elsewhere), which is taken to the point of absurdity, is symptomatic of a largely confused, addled, decadent culture, grasping onto anything that provides some semblance of meaning in the void of moribund judeo-christianity, philosophy, and aesthetics

The cultural roots of malady

In 1951, Hong Kong psychiatrist Pow-Meng Yap authored an influential paper in the Journal of Mental Sciences on the subject of “peculiar psychiatric disorders”—those that did not fit neatly into the dominant disease-model classification scheme of the time. . .

The Tree of Life – Terrence Malick

In: Pithy Movie Reviews

0 comments

This film is to Terrence Malick something like Nostalghia is to Andrei Tarkovsky. A little too indulgent in all those intangibles the director loves, not quite enough to hold onto. Yet, it is full of scenes of breathtaking beauty, and its more poignant moments, which are many, inspire rekindled identification and awakening. In the short-term one is left enriched, in the long-term a little more insightful. The film is a fugue, a poem, beautiful and poignant, but somehow not quite, not quite realized. One expectantly hopes for and awaits further offerings.

“Purity is Obscurity” – Ogden Nash



Show your support by liking FWIW on FB and/or G+, where I post something worthwhile (illuminating, informative, poetic, comic, tragic, usefully irreverent, captivatingly absurd) sporadically, whenever the mood strikes. . . You never know what you're going to get, but if I'm doing things right, whatever it is should ultimately enrich rather than detract from your life.
