Unleash11:17pm saturday, 29th april
It was in darkness where
I understood light. We so among
the brightness, we understand the littlest
what we take for granted,
in front of our very faces.
Camus was right, after all,
that we can only comprehend freedom
while imprisoned, grasp meaning
only when like Sisyphus
are subject to the pointlessness
of this absurd universe.
It was while I was among the evil
where the good shone in my eye;
I was blind, and now I see.
Why is it so far that we have to travel
to find home, finally?
It is all very tiring. Yet, perhaps
this is the mystery: why God said,
“Let there be light,” and took the trouble
to build a world, and life:
in the experience of doing,
we unleash the magic of work,
and it is a wondrous thing, where
the mathematics of promise
one must discover in contrast from
the nothing that we all tend towards,
to separate the light
from the darkness, and see
that it is good: these things
we must do ourselves, or the whole point
is lost, and one might just as well
have left it all empty, and perfect,
instead of living, stayed dead,
and never know for ourselves
what it can mean, to love.

Does this poem mean that NYC is better than Korea or that Korea is better than NYC?

Zachary Odette's psychiatrist is telling him that people with schizophrenia usually also have high I.Q.'s. Do you think the doc is just stroking Zachary's ego? I mean, yeah, maybe my uncle was pretty smart before schizophrenia (going to engineering school) but from what I've seen, now he's the classic case of having a major drop in I.Q. points with the disease. I also remember as a kid my Dad calling my aunt (who is schizoaffective like me) "retarded".

Why would a doc drag I.Q. into discussions about schizophrenia? It's like the doc is perpetuating the romantic notion that the disease is "Divine madness" where because you know too much or see too much about the secrete nature of reality you go mad.

"Sorry kid that you are crazy, but you know, you are only crazy because you had a very special superior mind to begin with."

I bet, if you did a statistical study, it is the smartest ones with schizophrenia who commit suicide. My aunt and uncle never tried. The one schizophrenic suicide that I know was very, very smart.

Could be that intelligence is only evolutionarily beneficial up to a certain level.
