chaos, creativity, and...

It would be nice to not only be noticed, but to be appreciated for the words one speaks to be not just nice, but sincere and everything, to have rhyme and reason. Some things are just lucky if they're noticed and some words wont ever be sincere, while the beauty of some people and events is derived from the small amounts of chaos that not knowing ignites.
-- M. Langdon

it is its own world

This old man said he'd give me his shoe, for a dollar...I asked, "don't you need that shoe? it's cold." He pulled out another from his bag "no I have plenty of shoes" Then I asked why he felt I needed a shoe and he said, "for walking."
-- M. Langdon

God or enlightenment is the ultimate pleasure, uninterrupted happiness. No such thing exists. Your wanting something that does not exist is the root of your problems. Wanting to impose a fictitious permanent state of happiness on the body is a serious neurological problem.
- U.G. Krishnamurti

inherent worth/inherent truth

You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation... and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else. —Hermann Hesse

we are star dust

Who cares what who thinks. If the thinker thinks it the prover proves it! By the way we are on a ball of mud flying in a circle around the sun. And our life is around 80 years or so! Never let anyone inform you of your own tastes! Live like your seat belts are broke! Buy the book and learn the reason for the season! Ho Ho HO!
--Dorothy Britt

"neither seek out nor resist"

Be a lamp into yourself! Work out your liberation with diligence! Fill your mind with compassion!
-- Buddha
