Opis

Rise from the Mud...Breathe depicts a young man's journey to discover why he feels his existence is dimensionally displaced and why he feels he is out of his true cognitive realm as though he were stripped of capacity and thrown into a lesser form in an evolutionary point preceding his own. Something is missing in him and the world around him, but what, he cannot fathom, save for the amorphous infinity before his mind's eye, the infinite expressions of beauty beyond and beneath the physical world surrounding him. Like an after image, he sees a civilizational structure overlaying the one before him. With two homeless men who share his feeling of disconnect, he explores this apparition of thought through a dialectical groping into which none of them can comprehend. Amazingly to him, he finds these two men share much of his unease and provide him with new insights into and visions of this optimal world design, but most importantly, these men show him how to have faith in himself amidst the ambiguity. The first man begins his journey in a McDonald's through a telling of his story, and the next takes him on the streets for four days and four nights to show him how he lives.
