i've lost count how many times i've wanted to write in here but then deleted it all in an act of "no one will really give a crap anyway"
but i've finally come to the conclusion that i really shouldn't give a crap whether or not people will give a crap or not.
yesterday i gave someone a copy of "zen flesh, zen bones."
this will make the 3rd person i've decided might actually understand it's text.
and i was right. and they reacted in the most curious of manners, asking questions of great interest, with a look i rarely see on people's faces nowadays.
of course the people i believe to read this post that "give a crap" will have the curiosity to research what this book is and read it will also understand it's text as well.
of course you'll have to empty your cup.
you'd be surprised how many people don't understand what that means. not only just understand but actually do it.
regardless, i was just glad i could influence 3 very different people on a path of discovering a knew outlook on things.
thats 3 saved. 6 billion to go.
now that i read this i understand why i sound religious.
i guess it can't be helped. i'm not trying to force it on anyone. i just help push people in a direction so they can find themselves... only the lost ones of course. not that i can be the judge of that i guess. but the other 2 i helped, i've seen so much of a difference in there lives since the day i gave them that book. i just can't help but wait for someone else to help.
they're everywhere.
people are so lost....
it's so sad...
