  1. From his pain and torment arises the beauty of his creation. What does this say of our human dilemma.

  2. human dilemmas floating over the serenity
    they only perceive what they want to see,
    they hear only what they want to listen to,
    they talk, when they want to say without thought,

    human dilemmas
    when needs was not being fulfill
    when secure being removed
    when losses arrive grief attend

    human dilemmas
    too many yet to discover
    too much uncertainty and choice need to be done
    too greedy over things not belongs to them

    what had Vincent say?
    about human dilemma
