dreams

When you focus on what you FELT in the dream, and think about what in your life maps to that emotion, you will know what the dream was about.

hello my love

it's getting cold

on this island

did i not...

they say it's true i'm racing time

idontbelieveitnow

don't feel anything can bring me
to the ground
oh yeah i must be crazy
but i believe it's my destiny
the only thing that puts me out
is the drive inside me

whenever my husband goes out in his "california"

t-shirt, guys yell stuff at him like, "go bears!" and then they do this strange, preternatural grunting ritual with each other.

i've been wearing berkeley shirts for 20 years and never once has someone said anything to me about it. okay that's not true, i've heard, "oh, did you go to berkeley?" -- from a woman. or a man trying to hit on me.

so my husband just laughs and says to me, "sometimes it's embarassing, being a man. we're such apes."

but aren't we all...

if you think you're enlightened,

spend a weekend with your parents --Ram Dass

It's easy to be peaceful in a spiritual ivory tower, where your ego is unchecked and little occurs to trigger anger, frustration, or any latent negative emotional patterns. For this reason, some Buddhist monasteries require their monks to rotate between three-month shifts within the monastery walls and out in the 'real world' employed in service-oriented labor. With time, anyone can learn to quiet their mind and pacify their emotions while living a controlled, serene life. But this is really just a skill, it doesn't necessarily mean any true self-awareness or growth has occurred. I have met alot of people that could meditate quite well, calming their minds and beings on retreat, but when confronted with a true life challenge, lost it entirely, and fell back on old, often destructive, emotional habits.
