Second one...
Randomly picking a day from my Wisdom of the East calender... led me to this...
People have a hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of a fear of the unknown, they prefer suffering that is familiar
-Thich Nhat Hanh
Recent events have turned familiar things topsy turvy. Doubts arise that I haven't had to deal with for years, facing things I hate to face. The holiday season, I'm not a big fan of it. Pardon me friends if I make a mess of things with any of you during this time. I'd rather stick a hot poker in my eye than deal with happy Holiday bullshit. I wish the year would end with Halloween (Samhain for those in the know)...
I've been thinking of times spent watching movies, whether anyone really does learn anything from my ridiculous babbling or if I'm just here to take up space, drinking a fine (or not so fine) drink with a friend, writing a good story on a page, roleplaying with some dice and imagination, the choice between darkness and light...
So many things spinning around my mind, so many changes, so many things staying the same. I suspect I'm getting arthritis, hell even the Mona Lisa is falling apart...
A challenge, if you'll dare... Respond to this post with a one word feeling/thought/object of reflection in regards to your wicked Uncle Ernie.. err.. Shane..
