For some of us, it takes years of chasing an UnHoly Grail to learn that the real nectar floats on the breeze, free to all, if we can only quiet our rowdy minds long enough to notice it.
Thank you, posthumously, Linds Redding, for one more voice of sanity.
I just read enough of this excerpt from Linds’ essay to wake up again (it also links to the full article)…
…and remember and understand just a little better, why I’m here. Why we’re here. On Earth… In Pagosa… Or anywhere.
Linda was an ad exec. I was an architect. The two are quite similar, these days. I’m grateful to have stepped out of the madness when I did. No regrets.
Here’s wishing to you the drunken stupor of caring for oneself!
Once again, Similar lines/circles of Thought have “Occupied” my MindSpace, recently…now, i kinda know what a “Fish out of water” feels like!…hehe…As the “gasping for Air” has subsided, i am left with yet another question to Self: “Now that I am here, what do I do Now?”…Sleep,nap,eat,internet…Oh My!
Mysteries can be so aggravating at times…Yet, the Heart Beats On… :)
Aha, dear friend! Be careful whom you ask THAT question! Lots of love to ya, Baba, ya been on me mind lately… :)
A student asked the master, Bokuju: “We have to dress and eat every day – how do we get out of all that?”
Bokuju answered: We dress, we eat.”
The questioner said: “I don’t understand.”
Bokuju answered: “If you don’t understand, put on your clothes and eat your food.”
So true, brother… :)
wonderfully symbolical! nice shot!
