There may be many people who have been anxiously waiting for this new book of Ronnie Lee’s to be published. His previous works may have indeed been helpful to them immensely with Ronnie’s great knowledge and zest for the meaning of life.
If you’ve read his previous books, here is Ronnie’s new book of poetry,and if you haven’t, you’re in for a treat.
The first section is on existentialism and success. Here Ronnie attempts to explain to us the meaning of life and logic with such wonderful passages and usage of words.
“Logic is what consciousness is looking for to find reasons and facts” Ronnie explains within the first couple of pages. Without it (logic) we apparently cannot equate and acknowledge and without these elements in life which help all of our senses, we cannot exist.
Here is a man who thinks deeper then you or I and yet helps us to understand him and be on his wavelength.
In order to doubt we have to have memory for this is the part of our system. The truth of morality and justice depends on the universe and existence. Deep, meaningful sentences keep the reader hooked and use his/or her thought processes more then we usually do.
The will to live is increased by many things like hope, achievements and love. I thought how right Ronnie is yet again and would encourage others to read this.
“Extentialisum and the Universe” was a really interesting part to read, especially “The Recycling Universe”:
“Even my duties theory, creates a path of cleaning, and renewing life, as eating creates excretion, which needs purification, through filtering, to return back to eating, and breathing and reproduction, creates a cycle, that needs to be purified, by death”
Another very clever, very deep passage that yet again had me almost in as much deep thought as the author himself and yet again was a part I loved. He talks of how the universe goes through many cycles of cleaning, refreshing and renewing.
I suppose we all contribute to the recycling process
especially with global warming being the most talked-about subject
and we do try to recycle as much as possible. Why not with our own
being?
What is beauty? Find out and read “Beauty”. A lovely ending to the “Existentialism and the Universe” chapter. It seems beauty can be found in everything - including your soul!
What’s the logic of life and why? Find out more if you read “Logic and Order”. What’s existentialism and travelling got to do with one another? Again read on and prepare to be amazed.
There is hope, Ronnie writes toward the end of this
philosophical book, and there is also peace and this it seems is “the
rule of God”.
This is rather a large book of philosophy (about 660
pages) but if you have any interest in existentialism then I can
safely say you will absolutely adore Ronnie’s latest offering in
the world of the deep, the ever-thoughtful and the always
fascinating.
Again a marvellous book and again I was amazed by Ronnie’s insight into the complex being that is man.
