Hey me

well the share was good last nite and i believe i will volunteer for this service on a continuing basis
i really appreciated the JFT reading this morning cuz i seem to take myself far too seriously sometimes
i forget that humor often is what is needed to alleviate my imagined pain with life on life's terms.
i know that i am only human but sometimes forget that i am right where i need to be and that i cannot be further along or less sick then i am now. this is a process and not event
so life goes on and i will recover

☯ The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao ☯

THE TAO TEH KING, OR THE TAO AND ITS CHARACTERISTICS
by Lao-Tse
Translated by James Legge

Book 1

1) The Tao is (like) the emptiness of a vessel; and in our employment
of it we must be on our guard against all fulness. How deep and unfathomable
it is, as if it were the Honoured Ancestor of all things!
