Eternal∞ism

the eternal return is a möbius-arrow

I believe in the eternal return, the möbius-arrow, the light of good life, and finding freedom in exquisite strife.

I believe that what is always was. That there is no nothing; no origin or apocalypse. No outside of what is; no prayer-bartered politics.

I believe in the eternal return, birth into the ever-onward-arrow that makes of death as a moment ago.

I believe all is as it was and will be again. That we make the most of our sacred ode; as new as it is old, as novel each time told.

That meaning and suffering and feeling are truths that bear their burden in the third, second, or first person.

That we can stand in the light of good life. Refrain from the hollows of painless gain, and the horrors of gain-less pain.

That the light of good life escapes the shadows of ever-striving never-arriving, as all points on the möbius-arrow equally thrive.

That we can delight in exquisite moments, free to do that which all may do. Forever bound to be forever new.
