Puzzling Humanity - Scribbles & Bits #31
Human relations are a conundrum most puzzling
Their discordant answering edges clash rather than meshing
A cryptic riddle defying translation in baffled communication
Aye, it is a mystery that men could agree sufficiently to ever form nations!
The inherent paradoxes and dilemmas require efforts excruciating
To join in some semblance of order to decode an idea of unity
Each conflict serves to compound this enigma’s gravity
Only when we learn to live with love will we find the solution key…

It is certainly a puzzlement!

(Grins) that reminds me of Yul Brinner in the ’King and I ’ movie. Yes, it certainly is!

thank you so much, tiggers! Look forward to seeing what others come up with for this challenge, it’s a bit harder I think but always fun
February 26, 2013tiggers
Yes I have not posted mine today yet , just not in the scribbles place but I will try as it is a bit harder for me to do
February 26, 2013Nightsong

well done! the reinforcing metaphors are subtle but there.. and i gree wholeheartedly with the thought..
February 25, 2013Nightsong
Had to check it twice to make sure it fit the criteria, the idea popped in my head and I just ran with it. Thank you for the impetus !
February 26, 2013pastormike
absolutely fits. the choice of metaphors for Human relationships is perfect..

Even in chaos can be found order… and in order can be found chaos.
February 25, 2013Nightsong
Truly enigmatic paradox life is! And I think I just pulled a Yoda…
February 26, 2013pastormike
and I think controlled chaos is the key to creativity..
February 26, 2013proudmomma8
Great post and chaos
February 26, 2013Nightsong
thank you, I hadn’t thought of chaos as a theme before so maybe I’ll play with that idea…
February 26, 2013noahbody
I agree.
February 26, 2013pastormike
too much control breeds mediocrity… too much chaos breeds anarchy.. but controlled chaos.. that breeds creativity. something good teachers have always known…
February 26, 2013Nightsong
That actually makes a lot of sense especially considering the creative process can be often taking an idea and deconstructing, free form experimentation and fitting the desirable aspects of the results to the final structure- or at least, that is frequently my process…
February 26, 2013pastormike
exactly. forcing yourself to fit within a form just does not foster creative thought.. but letting yourself go free with no boundaries never produces anything cohesive. but freedom within wide-ranging boundaries.. then you can be creative.

I know my creativity comes from my beast. I find it in my mania and depressions which are certainly chaotic.
February 27, 2013pastormike
controlled chaos tony.. chaos within boundaries. you’re at you’re best when you know whats coming and deal with it..
February 27, 2013TomasSISI
A puzzlement for sure. But it could be also the answer when we reach maturity. When clashing becomes love.
March 01, 2013Nightsong
Exactly. Well put !
