Nothing by itself can be right or wrong, good or bad. You bring something to it. To observe is to participate. And in your criticism you yourself is criticized.
In truth, I love nothing. Which is another way to say I love everything. If everyone in the room is yelling then no one is yelling.
I don't believe in anything. That is a problem. I believe it to be a problem. Then the problem, by itself, is solved. Return to the beginning.
The principle of change does not concern itself with right or wrong and other dualities (there are others for that), but only on the dynamic itself.
There is a way to find youself in the middle way without choosing the middle or the mediocre. Simply choose both extremes.
Sorrow is unavoidable when we are, without our control, in transport between our nature and our understanding. And we find neither to be lesser than the other.
You aren't an artist, there is no artist. This isn't an art piece, there is no such thing. There is only vitality.
I hate awesome.
There, I admitted it. I don't like the word. And the resulting flatness from the barrage of too much awesome.
Wittgenstein as written about by Bill Beckley, December 8, 1997:
Meanings of words like beauty result from their use. Beauty, he pointed out, is most often used as an interjection, similar to Wow! or rubbing one's stomach. When aesthetic judgements are made, aesthetic adjectives such as beautiful or fine hardly play a role at all. "The words you use are more akin to right and correct than to beautiful and lovely."
"and on the third day he brought his uncle." --Robert Hass
As a precaution, regularly take the following in small doses. On occasions when an agent of illness has entered the body, take the following in large doses:
* Whiskey or whisky
* Excercise
Rest on the fact that you are likely stronger than a microorganism. If it calls your bluff, be prepared to take your body to the brim of collapse. Surely, the germ would die before you do.
Here, a remedy for a life plagued with illness, prepared in three parts:
1. Avoid living in a perfectly sanitized environment. Eat often with your hands, and do it gracefully. Take hand baths as often as a restroom sink is in proximity, but only for its splish-splash pleasure.
2. Unless it is an emergency, never ever go near a doctor. Develop an involuntary upchuck for pills. Avoid the scheduled medication routine. Avoid needles in the eye, mouth, chest, abdomen, neck, spine, and scrotum.
3. With a straight face, deny being ill. Selective denial most often applied in religion can have more practical uses. To be effective you must learn to accept the multiplicity of truths, practice your best act, and master the art of belief.
