Hello! Thanks for dropping by. Its great to see you. This is a personal blog of Benson John, a 29 year old interior designer / photographer / 3D visualizer / music & movie lover living in Melbourne, Australia. This blog is a personal and growing archive of links, rambles, rants, thoughts, ideas, anecdotes and random musings - as well as an array of projects I have worked, or am working, on. It is also a place to gather some of the author's assorted web activities, like photos, links and music. You may want to subscribe to Morph8's RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

This post is a continuum of the last one.

That is an aspect of India that fascinates the world. The best articulation that I’ve recently read is by Sophie Cunningham, an Australian non-fiction writer. I would like to share a poignant passage from her writings and I strongly encourage you to read it in its entirety;

I left realizing that the world was a much more complex place than I had previously understood. I saw the depth of my ignorance and in that was a joy (having seen it I could begin to undo it, though I now see that any process of learning is just a gradual revelation of how deep that ignorance really is). To give up to not knowing, to be uncertain of the name of things, is a revelation. That space is the place where possibility lives. This is another thing India has taught me. Perhaps it is the most important thing.
