esse is reality presented in the actual experience. It is the knowledge, the indefinite continues progress of existence and events in the past, the principle concerning the distinction with what one personally feels through the senses, after the observation of the facts. esse is a palindrome, it has no capital letter, a spatial experience, a journey that reads the same, with two different but identical spatial conclusions, a homograph. Either end the journey ends with a space that has no articles, a space that is flexible, owning the ability to become different, depending on the state of mind, it’s the “Marbuah”. Made up entirely of the “Mendar”, changing function to suit the purpose, creating a different existence instantly, one for Adam the other for Hawwa. In the middle is the “Apple”, a space to meet if desired, to separate to one side or to unite as a whole. A space where mixing, combining and heating ingredients take place, the esse of life, the sensation of flavour is at play, it is the success of well-being. Between, private closets for purification. Externally a lavish garden grows wildly, water flowing continuously, sky/ light constantly changing, creating different moods in a never-ending serious of events, controlled by the creator, pleasing the sense and the mind in its beauty and uncertainty, the end is unclear, the story continues.
