Brave Souls Are We (A Contemplation)






Are our lives by our own design & agreements?
Is there really not another way? 
It's said we agree to events of our life before being born... 
Every little detail. 
Some days I think yes, 
this is surely true...
Other days I think 
why would any of us agree to these things?
All I can do, trust the Universe 
while observing humanity 
work through our collective 
dark night of the soul, 
knowing the Sun will rise again, 
start a new day. 
Grateful for my family and friends on this trip with me. 
What brave souls are we.

Each religion has tenets of the 'why' and 'what' for humanity's place in this world.

There's an ancient idea that we made soul contracts prior to incarnating here. Earth is a school and we signed up for these itineraries. Good, bad, and ugly. 

In this verse, I wonder out loud on this theory. 

Who really knows?

Guess none of us will until we jump to the other side and I'm not in any hurry to do that myself. 
Until then, I'll be content to wonder, not opine.

It's best to give all the grace we can each day where we can- especially to ourselves and walk as humbly as we can.

TL/DR : The Short Version: If photography is "capturing light," synthography is "distilling language." I feed my poetry into a digital "imagination camera" that translates my metaphors into patterns and pixels—turning the DNA of my writing into a visual landscape.  Synthography it is. In short, it means human and AI collaboration to create an image, video, or song.  More in depth from Google:   "Synthography is the emerging art form of creating images using artificial intelligence (AI) models, a process distinct from traditional photography (which captures light) or digital painting, where an artist uses prompts, parameters, and iterative refinement to generate visuals from text or other inputs, essentially "writing" or "drawing" with an "imagination camera".  It combines "synthetic" creation with "graphy" (writing/drawing) to describe the skill of crafting detailed prompts and tuning AI mo...
