Aside from Mario's vibrations, meditations, and realizations... this maestro is still learning how to construct the base on which to build his opus, and he keeps stumbling upon things the reader needs to know to be able to identify with Mario and his adventure.
The challenge with this particular entry though, is that it is filled to the brim with invisible items of interest. And what those items are can only come into view once the reader has dipped a toe or two into this stream of consciousness. One way to do that is, to give you the reader, a glimpse at one of Mario's favorite quotes by P. Freire, where he stated: "men and women develop their power to perceive critically the way they exist in the world with which and in which they find themselves; they come to see the world not as a static reality but as a reality in the process of transformation."
Mario is all about transformation these days, as he has come to many new understandings along his journey that you too, may find in-formative.
One example of this is to take words like 'understandings' and understand it! understand its doings... Transform it if you will... define, refine and re-de-fine the find! Explore it for your self and come to your own conclusions... for, after the end of this story, you too may have a similar experiential versions of your own with which to reflect... and your innate knowing deep in your gut will tell you that you will never again stand under what you know, but stand upon it proudly! It will become your podium! It will be the place from which you too can conduct your own opus!
So, let the story begin...
***
"Fuck you!" Mario screams into the phone, followed by a violent thumb push on the red [End-Call] button... "These mother-fuckers! Cock-suckers! Jag-offs and... Christ!!! When am I ever gonna get a fuckin break here?!!! I mean seriously... WHEN?!"
Mario has that habit of talking to himself when he gets frustrated, as though by hearing himself scream it, it some how takes away some of the frustration he is feeling, and that is rarely if ever the case. The more he hears himself scream, the more frustrated he becomes... a vicious little cycle actually.
"FUCK, fuck, fuck-idy-fuck these fuckin fucko's!!! Fuck 'em all! Piss up a rope! Go fuck yourselves! Off, as in the general direction of fuck!!! FUCK!!!"... Mario screams... well, you get the idea. He's venting.
You see, Mario has this issue with people taking advantage of situations and people. Especially people like him in such situations as he is in. See, Mario sadly assumes that people are honest and intend no harm... That people are inherently good... And that if any individual gives his or her best, then they will be justly rewarded for their efforts. That if they pour their passion into some project or task, that it will be recognized and appreciated. The reality though is never so idyllic.
Mario's world is filled with these non-idyllic fucko's... whom would gladly and most vamperistically suck upon the life force of people like Mario who are, shall we say, a bit too idyllically inclined? Perhaps, (I the author would say), more juvenile in their understandings of things is more accurate a description.
People like Mario have an innocence about them that is quite charming to the vast majority of people which unbeknownst to Mario and his kind, automatically sets him(/them) up to be victimized by the unscrupulous fuck-toids among that vast majority. And this vast majority, (fuck-toids excluded), are equally unawares of the mechanics which drive their behaviors in the first place, for all they know of it is that they too, must survive as best they can and by any means necessary. Even if a few of those innocent get harmed in the process. To that vast majority, that is just how it is, so "deal" they say...
Now, this 'any means necessary' among the 'vast majority' to 'survive' thingy needs some exploration. For in order to better understand the mechanics of such utterances... one must stand-under the roots of this here weed and see the connections which make a weed such as this one even possible in the first place.
As always, that brings us back to one of Mario's favorite topics: 'The DO-ings of language'.
Now, where to start?
Hmm...
This is always where the conundrum arises...
And as always, the methodological approach is to define the terms.
Possible terms to explore:
- understand
- survive
- idyllic
- intent
- inherent
- unscrupulous
- means
- roots
- weed
- necessary
- vast
- any
- majority
- et al
To define any term is to describe that term with other terms in the hopes of coming to some new understanding of the terms used to 'do' some thing, convey some message from one to an other about some matter, topic or idea.
Sadly, the 'vast majority' find this bothersome and boring to say the least, and if they bothered some and bored into it, assumptions would wither those weeds of our dear Ms. Co-mMunication who always seems to enter the party to bring drama and chaos and spread the seeds of discontent among that 'vast majority'. Which, BTW, if that be your mind-set... and you can/will/dare-not bore and can/will/dare-not be bored because it is all too long and just plain boring... then you had best be moving along... as your third-eye needs a squeegee that is found elsewhere... so cheers! Be gone!
Now, if you are the type to bore into things, someone with a lust for knowing... well... please do read on!
So, back to terms... Perhaps it would be best for you the reader, to go and explore that list of terms above.
Perhaps, if you the reader are able to take off your glasses so to speak, or remove your cloak of assumptions about what you think you think you know... for just a moment... or just long enough to explore like a child, assumption free... innocent like... and just go and look up those terms in several and various sources... comparing each to the others... noting the etymology... origins... root language of each term and how it was used... archaic to current, etc... then, you the reader will have a deeper and fuller understanding of each term separately... and once having done that exercise, you will now begin to see new connections betwixt the terms as they are combined and mingled one with the other to convey some message, meaning, idea or action which you may or may not decide to pursue.
As always, the choice is up to you to do or not do, and surely you know that if you came across one with this knowing, your current doings of language prior to this little exorcise will have no effect and will not be able to affect that one within which this type of knowing resides. To these folks, you will be an outsider... Out of class, so to speak.
Namaste
