An inspiring and motivating reminder that we are all connected in the keyboard of life, each one of us with a story to tell. I found this a wonderfully constructed and brilliant poem. Thank you for sparking the thoughts now swirling inside my head. And heart.
This is good; here is my response. It is a paradox of sorts. We are all connected, interconnected, but we are more isolated, living or (merely) existing as self-contained nodes. Nodes of Consumption.
And how free can we be if there are only two choices in a closed binary system?Where there are only a limifed number of accepted choices or responses. Such a system is maladaptive for human and non-human animals alike, and if I think about it just a little, it is malafaptive for all species.
We must never mistake speed and convenience for improvement and quality of life. As a way to achieve human potential.
Your words highlight the paradox of our connected yet isolated lives. The question of true freedom within a binary system is striking, showing how it limits both humans and animals. Your call to balance speed and convenience with real progress is both timely and important.
Thank you so much, Caliope Z. Your words mean a lot to me. I’m glad the poem resonated with you deeply. It’s a powerful feeling to see poetry and technology connect in such a meaningful way.
