above all show respect and love

Posted in Stones on the Path on November 28th, 2004 by DhammaSeeker

Each one of us matters, has a role to play, and makes a difference. Each one of us must take responsibility for our own lives, and above all show respect and love for living things around us, especially each other.

Together we must reestablish our connections with the natural world and with the Spiritual power that is around us. And then we can move triumphantly, joyously, into the final stage of human evolution–spiritual evolution.

~ Jane Goodall, Reason for Hope

Stolen from about 5 different people. Yeah you know, a few words from this person, a few from that… no not really, I'm lying, but it'd be funny if I did…..

(A) First, recommend to me:
1. a movie:
2. a book:
3. a musical artist, song, or album:

(B) I want everyone who reads this to ask me three questions, no more, no less. Ask me anything you want.

(C) Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends to ask you anything

So I was in the bathroom at work today, and crawling on the back of the commode was a large cockroach.  As I was voiding, I watched the bugger crawl into the crevasse between the back of the commode and the wall.  “Ah ha,” I thought, “now I know where you sleep!”  But then the thought occurred to me, “oh shit, now I'll never be able to sit on the commode again without fear of having the dirty bastard start to crawl up my backside.”  That could get messy, if you know what I mean.

That is all.

Living with contradiction

Posted in General on November 12th, 2004 by DhammaSeeker

“Living with contradiction, holding together polarities, making room for divergence leads to vitality and enables us to see opposites not as dead ends but as a series of open doors. When we come to know ourselves as gifted and conflicted, we become more tolerant of the differences we encounter in others and can relinquish the illusion that we are the center of a harmonious universe.”
