sad joy
life seems for me to be filled with intense sadness,
so intense it is an awful joy
a joy of being
tears may push out yet, joy is in each drop
a deep joy of being in the impermanent permanence
compelled to let go and accept the glaring beauty that is.
About Shaban
- d.shaban
- Mr. David Hysen is a teacher from the United States, living and working in South Korea. His principle interest is in what he refers to as 'stories,' but what the uninitiated might call modern myths. His other interests--besides philosophy, psychology, and classical mythologies--are culture, history, and in an area that could be called 'human compatability.' Talking with Dave is an inspiring, human experience. His words are often accidentally poetic. He is an extremely open minded, down-to-earth thinker and speaker whose conclusions are often embued with an aura of some gentle necessity for an understanding in all things, and all matters; the wealth prived in being oneself, and the general principle of letting things be. At the same time his thougts inspire conscious and active living--without any hint of the underlying dogmas that often harden the philosophical mind. One of the most pleasant aspects of knowing Mr. Hysen is the delight one can take in his Zen-like sayings and his child-like wonder. Look for his writing and be refreshed. --Carl Atteniese, Seoul, 2007 http://carlatteniese.net
