how many times have you been reduced to ashes?
there have been times i have been reduced to ashes.
how many times have you risen from the ashes?
there have been times i have risen from the ashes.
why do you say "awakening is never more than a moment away"?
why do you say "enlightenment is never more than a moment away"?
because i am not sworn to silence.
what do you make of the present human predicament?
we live in an accelerated---and accelerating---age.
what is one to do?
there is no hurry.
who am i?
a pebble on the stony path.
who am i?
a shining light on the way.
who are we?
each of us a human being.
each of us playing dumb.
why am i sometimes so tired?
because it requires at least as much effort to be asleep
as it does to be awake.
why disappointment?
life isn't all it's cracked up to be.
why hope?
life is much more than it's cracked up to be.
why anxiety?
no floor no ground.
the antidote to anxiety?
no floor no ground.
huh?
the "illness" and the "cure" the same.
and God?
God surpasses all expectations.
so, no expectations.
anything else?
to all a merry christmas
and a most happy new year.
