Fool Turtle

If it were not for this original post and those that followed, I would not have come across this song that YouTube insisted that I “Watch Next.”

Imagine Dragons – Shots (Official Lyrics)

Imagine Dragons – Shots

Thanks

On a more serious note, I also can’t resist this: watch the Dividing Wall symbolically be removed.

Scorpions – Wind Of Change

Scorpions – Wind Of Change

Thank you.

How can I resist? I just have to smile 🙂

Starsailor – Poor Misguided Fool

Starsailor – Poor Misguided Fool

Some good advice in the last song to not segregate thought from emotion. I would add that it is also wise not to divide emotion from thought. Practice makes imperfect acceptable!

Just because this is in my heart at the moment, and it feels like

Air – Cherry blossom girl

Air – Cherry blossom girl

Couldn’t stay “lost in the wilderness… Lost… In bitterness… Lord have mercy!..”

It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World – James Brown (Lyrics)

It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World – James Brown

Mullah Nasruddin was looking for the key to his house, on his knees in the warm sunny dust of the high-way, when a kind stranger offered assistance. Together, they looked, until the stranger asked Nasruddin, “Where did you lose your…[Read more]

I was stuck, trapped in my mom’s birth canal: my memories get fuzzy–lol!

I got through it, with a little help from my friends.

Sound quality:

Yin and yang?

I don’t understand too many things all at once. The sun and moon say that it’s time to burn bridges and wander… When I was a boy, my hero was Horton (hears a Who). I see flaws that stem from Augustine, among others, here.

I think I understand “polishing mirrors” and the yang counterpart somewhat, but I really would appreciate some…[Read more]

A Woman’s Sex
It has the original mouth but remains wordless;
It is surrounded by a magnificent mound of hair.
Sentient beings can get completely lost in it
But it is also the birthplace of all the Buddhas of the ten thousand worlds.
Rinzai’s disciples never got the Zen message,
But I, the Blind Donkey, know the truth:
Love play can make…[Read more]

Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Words

Many years ago, in a book now forgotten, in a place unremembered, I read what were stated to be the last words of Leonardo da Vinci – and it is this first version or translation of his final utterances that remains my favourite.

“I have offended God and Mankind, by doing so little with my life.”

Think…[Read more]

They say that nothing is new under the sun. It’s all new to me.

“Are uncorrupted or saintly people unfairly prone to sinister and demonic attacks of the Lifeforce? ”

It’s a good question, I think, but I don’t know how to tell if people are uncorrupted or saintly; what is fair or unfair; or what is sinister and demonic. Perhaps someone else knows.

Fun: I was discussing this very woman right about the time you posted this.

“Bad as I like ye, it’s worse without ye.” So saith me ancestors. I think it applies equallywell to people as it does to smoking.

Eddie Hooper – Tomorrow’s Sun

Just listened.

I can hear both of them.

It’s all in the BODY.

Heh…

It’s actually pretty awesome being an artist and having a little quirk like that.

When I was but a wee laddie, knee-high to a grasshopper, I was put in an airtight bag; In the warm carbon-dioxide-rich darkness, my ears clearly perceived the disembodied voice explaining my predicament and impending death by suffocation–and then, I alsofelt the floorboards vibrate and the door slam shut. I lay there, thinking ofpeople I knew…[Read more]

Thank you, Steven. One would be recalcitrant in omitting an expression of gratitude–a token of appreciation, at least–for your helpful responses, which demonstrate kindness.

Good sir, I pray of thee, mistake not mine matriculation, with merriment, to the HT University, with moribund madness! The joke is always on me; the really funny o…[Read more]

What about the people that have experience of hells?

The Visionaires – To Have A Home

If I were buried soon, I think this song would be appropriate, at least to my sense of humor.

It’s interesting. Who am I when I’m sleeping? I once had a dream that I was standing on a bridge, and I became afraid that if I jumped off, I would fall…[Read more]
