“When I feel stuck, mentally stuck, my first tendency is always to walk, to wander. Thus commenced the “month of extensive wandering,” day after day, through parts of the city I knew all too well into parts of the city that were almost entirely unknown to me. And, or so it seemed, the less familiar my surroundings, the less familiar my thoughts.”
- Jacob Wren, from the work-in-progress tentatively entitled Desire Without Expectation

The Last Temptation of Christ 1988 Martin Scorsese
Intense anxiety. For as long as I have been fighting my fear of dying, I should have triumphed over it. Of course not! My fear is too old, it grabs me from time to time, with redoubled violence. Nameless humiliation. What calmed me down today was thinking about the countless deaths since “life” appeared. These living, men or not, they all died, so to speak, without difficulty. Some of them had to suffer from this fear much more than I did; and yet they passed to the other side without much embarrassment. To tell the truth, it is the disease that I dread, the immense humiliation of that which spends its time around death. I am not modest enough to know how to suffer. Any trial seems to me an insult, as a provocation of fate. As long as we do not know how to suffer, we know nothing.

Goodbye, Dragon Inn (2003), dir. Tsai Ming-liang
I was beginning to look for some meaning when I should have been satisfied with events. It is hard to turn away from moving water. For the time, being; twilight seen even full. I mean to say “hopelessly” in a promising tone, as one would say, “hopelessly in love,” and mean, really, “very much,” and, especially, “full of hope.” In my “trouble with conflict,” I was reluctant to be disconcerting, to cause discontinuity. Panic versus crystallographic form. When one travels, one might “hit” a storm, from My Life, Lyn Hejinian

If one is asked how nonbeing is related to being-itself, one can only answer metaphorically: being "embraces" itself and nonbeing. Being has nonbeing "within" itself as that which is eternally present and eternally overcome in the process of the divine life. The ground of everything that is is not a dead identity without movement and becoming; it is living creativity. Creatively it affirms itself, eternally conquering its own nonbeing. As such it is the pattern of the self-affirmation of every finite being and the source of the courage to be.
