Quote by John Verdon

“That particular failure of judgment revealed something in himself he hadn't previously been aware of--his tendency to ascribe greater authenticity to expressions of hatred than expressions of love.”

“Reality is Frequency (EM Sonnet) Light is a matter of frequency, reality is a matter of (EM) waves. I'm talking in a mathematical sense, and not in a mumbo jumbo sort of way. Light, there is always, just not the kind we can see. Just like our eyes register a limited spectrum, mind too is blind to plenty. Our eyes are not equipped to perceive outside certain spectrum, just like our mind is conditioned to see nothing beyond self preservation. With modern gadgets we can see the full EM spectrum, beyond the limits of our senses. Likewise, a well developed character transcends the very barrier of time and space.”

“Reality transcends the realm of visible objects. Every activity, engagement, and endeavor in our lives is ultimately directed toward the realization of an ideal—an intangible purpose that cannot be perceived by the eyes. Though it may appear as if we are attached to the physical forms of persons or objects, our true interest lies beyond these forms, in the greater purpose they serve. No one forms a connection with a person or thing without a deeper motive. This purpose, which transcends the person or object, is far more significant than the tangible entity itself. It is imperative to remember this truth: our relationships, affections, and commitments are not ends in themselves but conduits for something far greater. Whether it is love for a child, affection for a parent, unity within a family, or service to a nation, all such bonds are guided by an invisible intention, an unspoken objective, or an overarching ideology that eludes the senses. In essence, we all live for an ideal—a vision that is unseen yet profoundly influential. This revelation is both fascinating and humbling: we labor not for the visible and physical, but for the intangible and transcendent. The objects and people we encounter in the material world are mere instruments, evoking within us the awareness of this higher purpose. Thus, it is not the physical world we love, but the ideals and aspirations it signifies. Recognising this truth shifts our understanding of existence, compelling us to align our actions with the unseen purposes that define the very essence of our being.”
