"Think ...."

Think with your whole body.

Taisen Deshimaru

Bird moment

Bird moment:
Seeking,
Me, or
Mine.

"If you understand ...."

"If you understand, things are just as they are... If you do not understand, things are just as they are..."

"One by one the sands are flowing ...."

One by one the sands are flowing, 

One by one the moments fall;
Some are coming, some are going;
Do not strive to grasp them all.

Hours are golden links, God's token

Reaching heaven; but one by one

Take them, lest the chain be broken

Ere the pilgrimage be done.

Adelaide Anne Procter

"In a relativistic universe ...."

In a relativistic universe you don't cling to anything, you learn to swim. And you know what swimming is - it's kind of a relaxed attitude with the water. In which you don't keep yourself afloat by holding the water, but by a certain giving to it.

Alan Watts

"I know too well the poison ...."

I know too well the poison and the sting of things too sweet.

Adelaide Anne Procter

Bird tale

Bird tale:
There will be days
you feel unable to connect,
That's normal
that's fine.
