- Every guru, therapist and self-help expert I have ever met is nuts. Every one of them— all cuckoos. The healer who does the most good is drawn from the deepest, darkest shadow. Today when I talked about this with my neighbor friend Parham, he said something like this: to live a life fully you have to a be nutcase.Attempting to impress me with words is a challenge. But he impressed me with quite a few quotable quotes today. Like when we talked about my non-stop hopeless long journey to get uninstalled from dark past virus, he said that it is good to be uninstalled slowly, in human terms, slow is fast, fast is slow. This is no quick fix, long winding road is the ultimate shortcut.I need to ask him for more quips like these.Pay attention to shadows, more attention! Listen to it, all truth are hidden there. Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.When the sun finally sunk down, a scary thought came to my mind, the higher power/God/universe is so ridiculous/powerless that it can not even keep the sun up in the sky two days in a row!

Reply maya倒是有一首旧歌叫Fools on the hill讲这个的,
But the fool on the hill,
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.Pay attention to shadows, more attention! Listen to it, all truth
are hidden there. Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance.When
the sun finally sunk down, a scary thought came to my mind, the higher
power/God/universe is so ridiculous/powerless that it can not even keep
the sun up in the sky two days in a row!
If you can take the jet-plane, chasing the Sun around the earth, I had experienced
several times of two days in a row... - RE: To live fully you have to be a nutcaseposted on 10/18/2012

Reply mayaNotes from Ken R. from his class with
Rabbi Finley Treat the image of God accordingly even if it is you.
Treat yourself as an image of God to adore and cherish and take care of. You are an image of God. Personify
those forces within yourself. Focus and personify big positive words, Take
action to rid of negative big words. - RE: To live fully you have to be a nutcaseposted on 10/19/2012

Reply #5 阿姗Collective negativity
We were lying on the beach, P.A was reading his vote brochure, there were so many propositions to vote for, one of the vote is about death penalty and we were talking about the increase of inmate population, if I remember correctly. He used the term of "Collective negativity" to describe the negative power travelled through those thick prison doors. If we lock up more people inside, their pain and suffering will for sure reach each and everyone of our hearts, their pains will be our pains very soon.
We cannot be insulated against collective human sufferings. Very often if we feel blues suddenly out of nothing particular, it may be very likely those slight sadness is not from our own life, it might be from the past, from another country, pain travels from a far distance.
Pain travels and pierces into all hearts.

new poem from maya:
dancing with a shadow
As
I just close my eyesThose
dark shadows creep in
In
the darkness of my room
I
sense shadows filled with gloom
