renegade thought

Suspension of disbelief. I just came across this phrase, this beautiful phrase. Just be quiet and ponder over it, if only for a moment. It's what we need to believe in the future of mankind, to have hope. It's the only way to hold on to faith in this modern world, so cocksure in its arrogance. It's what keeps us going, the story-lovers, the storytellers, strange bedfellows though we may be. It's the bridge on the way to leaps of insight, the shamanic mushroom. It helps you teeter on the tightrope that runs through the labyrinthine abyss of myths and metaphors. Suspension of disbelief.
