he's backthe well-travelled hermit shifts from place to place but never really gets anywhere. and all around, are people who talk a whole lot but do not say anything. grandiose posturing. fakes and transience and meaninglessness brushed with broad strokes of the same grey.
but then, as close to fairy tales as they come, it seems like he's gone to a better place.

i believereligion can be loosely defined as a system of beliefs that one adheres to, usually surrounding an intangible yet omnipotent object, person, passion or ideal. it is the belief in something which may or may not be real, and usually involves a huge leap of faith. a leap of faith, in turn, usually involves putting aside fears, expectations, and pre-existing beliefs.
beliefs in something akin to the intensity of 'religion' would, i believe, be the antithesis of sound logic and reason. a debate between a staunch atheist and someone religious may end up as a trench war of cold hard facts that round to a solid case, against a more "feeling" one which few can claim to have the moral high ground or even any establishment of fact to condemn religion and its arguments as pure fallacy. who is to judge?
but hey, papa don't breach. and so wouldn't i.
baby, if you are looking for reasons, look no further. countless people have barked up that tree, few satisfied. i've mentioned countless times how we are so amazing, how we stand up and say "f*ck all" in the face of convention. how everything fell into place so perfectly that it couldn't have been coincidence, neither could it be explained by logic. since it is all so hard to define, why try?
together, we can see with our hearts, not with the eyes. belief in this crazy little thing called love means that we seek not logic and reason, buzzwords for those who don't believe enough.
take my hand, take this leap of faith with me. to a place where the signboards are few, and we may sometimes lose our way. but i will be there with you every step of the way. there'll be no one who can say we are only daydreaming. and i will follow you into the dark.
