- my mom had Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead on her bookshelf, so I read them as a preteen Some of the worst crap I ever read, and I certainly knew it then
- After Max goes back to HBO Max, it goes back to being HBO, then Home Box Office, then Sterling Cable Network, then Manhattan Cable, as the grass grows back into the ground and we all marvel at Video Jukebox, George Carlin Specials and G-String Divas
- can't it just go back to better programming?
- like a meditation or guided fantasy, take long, deep looks at your life, how experiences have felt, where relationships have led, what calls to you to complete or begin, what has meaning, where do you go for escape and restoration Now, think about how your future could be created
- tolerating is not the same as condoning or encouraging or embracing -- it is just admitting the reality of what is in our world and figuring out how to deal with that without violence
- Why do we obfuscate our common rules in elite jargon, legalese, when rationally what we need is profound fairness of clarity?
- I think the emphasis on competition as we grow and learn how to navigate the social world would cause many to feel resentful of any perceived advantage to those we see in competition with us for the good stuff.
- Many seem to prefer a view of humanity as warring savage slaves to greed, casual meanness I say: All people suck But, not all the time, some more than others. Some can encompass great kindness, joyful celebration of our communion What empowers the positive regard, diminishes the cruel and mean?
- why do so many people hate their lives so much and refuse to make them better instead sending their hate outward?
- when Earth no longer sustains human life, what are you going to buy/who are you going to rule/where are you going to be?
- Stop encouraging those working to oppose our essential values. Stop acting like their work is of value to our world.
- Cowardly lazy liars to convince themselves they are the virtuous
- "La danse, c’est le mouvement, et le mouvement, c’est la vie." (“Dance is movement, and movement is life.”) –Ludmilla Chiriaeff (Founder, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens
- Feelings are communications from your self. Feel them through and let them tell you their story. Better, dance them into a beautiful fantasy, expressing their power and grace.
- These people live with a paradigm of a steady state Kingdom of God in which God’s will is meant to be followed to insure safety. My understanding, though, is that we inhabit an expanding universe, that God has set us free upon this planet with free will to learn and interact with ongoing Creation.
- If you are not a Christian, the Christian mythology is just another mythology.
- Sorry is not the word for living Take heart beyond simple forgiving Take time to recognize the beautiful, the fruit that’s full of sun and rain and soil Much better than respecting sorrow, Discover joy to fill tomorrow
- You know what else is free speech? Calling idiots out on their idiocy rather than letting them think they are right
- One of my serious concerns with all these knee-jerk security measures is the plight of people with various mental/emotional sensitivities getting bullied beyond their ability to cope.
- It’s not so much that the road to hell is paved with good intentions, as the road to purgatory is paved with inattention.
- It’s past time to give up on Keynes and Smith and all the rest of the economic theorists and start thinking rationally about what actually works.
- Let the Circus reign Let the Great Orators cast their voices like molten gold to flow and burn us all
- Corporations may be legal people; they are not moral people. Like bureaucracy, money, mass media blitz, the corporation allows the people who work behind it to distance themselves from realities. “It was the fictitious person who did all that crap. I am just a humble, even horrified, servant.”
- It is so much more profitable to lock people up and let them rot than to educate or provide services to help them make a living.
- Instead of “sharing the pain” why don’t we share the pleasures of a country we can all take part in and be proud of?
- Not only do we blame the victim, charge the victim, and generally disrespect the victim, our legal system is all about the perp; the victim gets victimized and the “people” get their entertainment.
- How does it respect, improve or protect our freedoms when we deny them to any of us?
- Nobody should be brutally beaten, nor purposely hurt at all for no good reason. Unfortunately, that is not the prevalent message of our social milieu.
- The soundbite political philosophy which we take as normative needs to be countered with the long form.
- On reflection certainties of youth acquire a different truth Re-direction creates a different view Reveal feelings new to introspection Not what you expected, different cues mix into different moods, more from which to choose
- Read, critically and for maximum enjoyment. Listen to the cadences of language of the voices all around. Feel the words gather and interact within you. Write. Read what you have said as if a stranger. Rewrite. Once your words have said all they can to you, send them to find friends and feedback.
- Has it to do with how how thoughtful activities seem to attract bullying? Surely, there are strong voices in America with poetic sensibility. Are they not considered acceptable fare for tv infotainment? Have we become too accustomed to sound-bite journalism, too attention deficit to take in more?
- It had not occurred to me that poetry was more valued in other places. It feels sad to me that the American spirit of pragmatic Protestantism should overwhelm the spirit of awed naturalism and adventure I like to associate with the American mythology.
- Morality is about living successfully in a world of others. Thus, it is not about absolutes, but relationships.
- The love of love The hope for blinding light that bathes all cares with caring
- Wesak Moon Where Buddha crossed the quarters, graciously approached liminal wisdom Our Lady Goddess guides We who dance in shadow, turn the Earth, bless the seed, feel awakened in darkness, consecrated to the between air of transformation where enlightenment, eternal bliss encounter life
- I am a non-duelist. It’s not about at-one, but ever expanding diversity.
- What is enlightenment but another brain state a place where light and pain converge and realign where signage glows and mind smiles slowly, burning through compost, rusty concepts like goals or dying …
- Not difficult, nor new, or even at odds with best evidence; what impels us to focus against what is so clearly sensible, sane?
- Who do we trust when lies within falsehoods are demanding our minds? Who cares to act kindly without legitimizing fools, defying rules as well-meaning guides, acting to further their visions regardless of sides that seek to divide?
- lunar ramblings desperate times It’s time to realize how horrid people can be when so many of us are dying of preventable despair.
- Who might save us? People who learned to survive aware, strong, tough, experience deeply, synthesize overarched understanding, core root cause, branching feeding collective consciousness limiting blinds, binds, silence – free our view.
- Seductive Luna smiles, peaks, tattling on windowside gleanings Shines wishful memories Attracts hopeful gaze of believers in love with her flirtation In the quiet of storm lifting breeze, you seek temperature of my wellbeing I am on to you — pushing out that cerebral switch previously known as “off”

- Mother says Enjoy the Sun Enjoy the rain Enjoy the love Enjoy the pain Enjoy the fear Enjoy the rage * Listen intimately to your broken heart Feel its words; inhale its art * Dance, sing, self-embrace and swing Enjoy surprise, the changing tides, this space in time while you’re alive.
