Isn't everything predetermined by the mechanics of the universe? Only one will determine what impact the answer has on the question. Think long and hard on your actions and responses, because the future is depending on you, the answer to life, the universe, and everything. Beginning the journey one is meant to discover. The Buddha never taught about the universe, he helped people to discover that which is unexplainable and understood by pure conscious experience. Evolution, it has always been here just lost and shifted aside by the promise of science. Explain the difference. When you are in love, you spend almost all your time thinking about that person; as you fall out of love, they become less central to your concentration. That's why I don't know you. The whole problem remains just as mysterious as it always has been, but a little more frustrating. Absurdity and its acute observations. When one have a sense of anonymity one feels safer. Lack of fear is the lack of consequence. This standard is required against which others may be compared You're on your own. Points to the contrary. Imagine the scenario. Signs can be misinterpreted. Motive behind a lie. Dull ones body's response to the point where the difference between the reactions to truth and lies is inconclusive. A staple part in the plot. I question ones ulterior motives. Get some distance. Anonymity equals the ability to get away with anything        Dead Turkey Bad Turkey- 11/22/06 Many people leave comments for other people making dubious claims about "coolness." There is much skepticism and innuendo about such claims. Disposable cog in the big bureaucratic wheel.        Faire Montrer- 10/8/06 Sold the concept.        Unwritten- 9/27/06 Took the last train home. Birds all around. I'm not alone. Your one of them. When two jeep wranglers pass each other on opposite sides of the road, one of the drivers initiates the wave and the other waves back. This symbolism bondage between jeep owners. That's why only cool people drive a jeep.        Society of One- 9/22/06 Now on myspace.com Big fucking deal right? Principles and practices of buddhism both interesting and practical for everyday living. Insight and awareness in taking a sabbatical. At the subatomic level, mechanical physics, space and time seem to be in a state of chaos. At the end of time, as we experience time, it is now thought that only subatomic particles will remain thus locking-in time to an everlasting "now" and therefore creating an eternal time with no end. If the very nature of matter is in chaos then there really is no predetermination of the physical universe.        Hearts on Fire- 9/16/06 True challenge in looking ahead. Life Is but Another Way To Torture ones Soul, But A Soul Would Not Exist Without Life. Lets say goodbye like we said hello. The sound of falling rain is primal, but soothing. It can be steady, but one never knows when it might suddenly stop. I never want it to stop, not when I am listening to it fall asleep. But then it does. To late now. Missing the possibility. I walk alone in the rain. This is due to the cloud above my head. The dark pregnant ominous cloud one can see in the distance. I see a lot of people with their own clouds a lot of them are darker than mine but none as constant. You see, people have there ups and downs in life, I, however, have a perpetual shower on me. Not one that's incredibly strong but it's cold and wet. Just enough just to keep you sick. It wasn't always this bad. Once, there were rays of sunshine peeping through my cloud drying the rain and making me warm. But I screwed it up. The change must have shocked me for I shunned the sun, and threw up an umbrella. Ironic of course, to have the umbrella up only when it was sunny and not raining. Don't have to worry about the cloud anymore. Believe in something beyond yourself. Where will I be when the sun goes down? Cooking com bigode Nothing short of total revolution, lets write the future. Even trivial deviations that should not alter the outcome of this process, do, in fact, cause problems.        My Zoo- 8/14/06 Just can't bring myself to describe someone I have not met yet. She comes and goes throughout my life, this woman with changing faces, a heart that knows me better than I know myself.  Devoting time to readying this space for when it will be filled again. Maybe someday she will stay. UU Buddhist Fellowship Opt for the Miss Cleo approach Drawn to another who is most like oneself — traits that one can identify with and deeply empathize with as experience         Its not about you - 8/13/06 Silence. The question is the answer. By invitation only. Be nice to your friends. Filled with saints. Feeling lonely, where is my shadow? When the day is over she will be tomorrow. The right person, understands your difficulties, encourage you to fight with the problems, corrects you when you are wrong, and still will be with you when everyone may not look at you. Identify your values. Would you much rather have a relationship based on trust, honesty and transparency or lies, betrayal and pain?. What is your point? Strength derives from the physical, while weakness is seen in the emotive. Or does it? Not for them to make one defend their beliefs any more than it is for one to challenge them on theirs. Both have faith; just in different things. Hi Grasshopper We are all Gods. We can create life, change it or take it away. We can only guess, assume, and theorize based upon our life experiences. You were made from soil, and you will once become soil. Given choices I can live with the result but given no choice you live with the result. So go fuck yourself. I get paid more than you can spend. Je T'aime or Ich liebe Dich Remember? The bottom line is- no one is not going to do anything for you. The most beautiful place in the world is my heart. Do what you must but you must live with it forever High school reunion- Funny after all these years no one has really changed.     Diminution - 7/13/06 Redressing any significant prospective economic disparity arising from the past. A complication rears its head at some point. Draw a line under the past. Relationship of interdependence. The starting point is surely not controversial. In the search for a fair outcome it is pertinent to have in mind that fairness generates obligations as well as rights. Unspoken principles guiding the approach. Direction leads nowhere. Summarizing facts and identifying issues it will be convenient to consider some general principles. Times and attitudes have changed, and with them content and language. Principle of universal application.     Dualistic World - 4/29/06 What can one write that never been written before? Like a snowball headed for hell. If a bird flies through your house, it indicates important news. If it can't get out, the news will be death. Nothing new will ever be said here nor do I have any skills in composition. I really doubt my writings can benefit others. I am doing this for my own mind. Nothing is constant by change. Life is rarely convenient and never certain. Being without things one dislikes and being without the things one does like. Some expect the world to satisfy ones desires, clinging to the idea that someday everything will be as it should be. Letting go of attachments is the end of suffering. Cause of dissatisfaction is ignorance. Concrete realities. Experience empty of enduring reality. There is no 'I'.     Renunciation thoughts -2/19/06 Attachment to material possessions and success is a big problem. Preliminary teachings such as impermanence and death. Accumulating, protecting, losing is the source of all suffering. According to the time and place. The basic teachings such as karma, interdependent origination, the sunyata view, enlightenment thought, cannot be changed. However the way we recite, what we wear, what we offer, these could all be changed. Without being able to explain what you believe then how can one practice? Vast difference between understanding and not understanding. Chose the middle way circumambulate and make prostrations. Everything comes from dependent origination. The real enemy is not outside, but inside.     Disclaimer -2/4/06 By reading this I have taken control of your mind.        What If -1/23/06 Even more with even less. That isn’t to the point . Tying their arms and legs and asking them to run faster. Less time, at lower costs, and with fewer resources. Most importantly, one wants to be able to sleep at night. Even if one doesn't choose to sleep at night.     Shock of Two -1/4/06 Being visibly proficient cuts to the core of our identity. Go to the left ring of hell and burn baby. Of course you look fat in that outfit. To tell the literal truth would plant an unnecessary seed of doubt or hurt. Realistic lines of personal strengths. License to acknowledge. Nutrient needs. Discreetly pointed out. Lick wounds in private. Solution to be found. Change the situation. Bonding opportunity. Does it matter that intentions were pure? Iceberg of criticism. Just shut up. Unburdened by moral restraints. The best you'll ever get. Self-preservation. Learned behavior.     New Horizons -1/3/06 Much you can do. Primed to pass. Talk about the changes. Spoken in a special way. New life in a new home. Join me at http://www.purifymind.com/      Choices -1/2/06 In ones life's, sometimes one think things will never change. Then something comes along and shines a light....in all the dark corners, and shows things about ones self, things one may have known, but put away.
