(Further to the series: On the Establishment, Care, and Maintenance of Personal Social Parameters)
The struggle,
and the weight
of trying:
reaching for a point
of departure.
Dropping the repetition,
putting away the routine,
the boredom,
the sameness,
of constant distraction.
Letting go of the spiels
of strident people
beleaguering their very own
hobby horses,
until the beast falls.
Unchaining from the distraction
of the reality of others:
setting aside the blackness
to which our masters
condition us.
Then rising, with song,
and a sense of joy
into the cool, crisp air of logic;
into the sunshine
that dwells within.
Welcome, and Namaste
Greetings fellow travellers,
For you American friends visiting, you will notice that this old Canadian uses Canadian English in this blog: kindly bear with me. As I blog primarily on subjects that are vitally interesting to me, I appreciate all feedback.
As I tend to be a bit of a language usage freak, I will, as required, edit obscenity and rude comments. That said, I welcome your opinions and discussion.
May your Dharma be clear
Peace
"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended:
That you have but slumb'red here,
While these visions did appear."
