Thanksgiving

A model for how deep our minds and hearts should and can be. I'm thankful on this thanksgiving day for having had the privilege of Jay's company.

Some random crap that amuses me:

Bank of Americunt now charging $5 ATM fees. LOL. I love it.

BofA seems to represent everything we don't like about banks these days. They rule supreme in so many categories of sleaziness. Maybe they haven't laundered as much drug money as Wells Fargo, but they tend to pop up in all other bad bank behavior stories like no other. Enjoy those $5 ATM fees you sorry-ass losers who think you're important because you consume and have bank accounts and mortgages you can't afford.

Ah, the simple solitude of an obscure, unkown blog. It's like stretching out in a shaded, backyard hammock after an exhausting day of trying to purchase fleeting gratification in a crowded strip mall. May God bless my return to this humble sanctuary which assures me of an even deeper level of obscurity than what I errantly imagined I was already suffering from. Symbolically it is a return to my Self. It feels good... and so necessary.

A Way

Courage chooses surrender.

Surrender begets stillness.  

Stillness unleashes understanding.

Understanding establishes peace.

And peace IS enlightenment.

So be at peace.

And if you can't be at peace then endeavor to understand.

And if understanding doesn't come then be still.

And if stillness eludes you then surrender.

And if surrender seems impossible then you are only one courageous choice away from enlightenment.

Screw Facebook. I'm blowing the dust off of this blog. Anyone who truly gives a damn shouldn't have a problem coming here to find me.
