Effervescing bubbles of emotion swells within the breast, a joy and delight in the state of being. A wine of days gone by, sweet love, so rich, so quick to elude, yet so willing to be embraced.

To love without the need to be loved in return, to love from afar and in secret, to love being in love and to love being loved, For all it's beauty, it is all illusion.

True love is a state of being, not an emotion which can change with the passing of time. True love is what remains long after the emothions have drained the body, True love is what weeps with the passing of the beloved and yet takes joy in life.

But then life is a series of shadows from which we each pass into the light, a series of secrects which we even conceal from ourselves, a series of great truths which in time turn into dust, ah but in all the illusions there is the truth and the key to our release, and that key is love.


I know not the wisdom of which I speak. I am but the fool on the hill. Catching words from out of the air to delight my own sense of self.
Being fictional, or just playing, either way, what do I know of these truths.
What have I done to deserve any special knowledge, perhaps life on the edge does leave a person more open to the ethereal nature of life then does a normal life style.

If it where not for the courage of the many, who do work everyday and build the world we know, if not for the mothers who have faith in a better tomorrow, then there would be no world for us dreamers.

Thank you for letting me share, if you find anything that is useful to you, then take it and leave the rest, me, I seldom read them afterwards as I find them somewhat disturbing.

beauty is all around us if we have eyes to see and a heart to share it with.

Love is also a decision--today I will LOVE my fellow man, look for the good and allways be ready to give the benefit of the doubt. <img src="http://www.arlo.net/ubb/smilies/peace.gif" width=16 height=16>

Love begins with one's self, learning to accept one's self with all of the so called imperfections is always the first step.

Once we love ourselves, loving others comes with ease.

... and loving one's self starts with accepting the dichotomy that one's self is nothing, and yet everything.

Not sure that a true dichotomy exist here as I do not see a split in the nature of being, the harmony of life is the oneness of nothing being everything, and everything being nothing, but you do appear to know that bears are to be found in the woods.

Excellent choice of a word, and I bet it was the first time today you got to use it. If you keep it up, I am going to have to get myself an edumecating so I can understand where the topic is going.

Richard, If you were to be asked to improve the world today, and were given unlimited powers to bring about change, what three things might you change? Yes, it is a test.

OK... so maybe it wasn't quite the right word...

<I>di·chot·o·my n. pl. di·chot·o·mies
Division into two usually contradictory parts or opinions: “the dichotomy of the one and the many” (Louis Auchincloss). </I>

But it was neat to actually use one of those words that float around in my head that I never usually get to use!

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY - I believe that you understood where I was going with the thought.

Right now I am very aware of my smallness in relation to the IS... and am becoming aware of my oneness with the IS ... and of my ISness... IS is LOVE is I am IS

conscious evolution in front of your eyes,
conscious evolution in the back of your mind, conscious evolution go on spread the word,We're all busy learnin on a learnin curve,
Consious evolution's all there is on your side.
Consious evolution-it's what turns me on.
Consious evolution is the writing on the wall.

DTB scare me

contemplation on theosophy, seems to keep me going in circles. Love those circles, love theosophy, love contemplation, love love.

Words are so powerful, they can left the soul or crush the dreams, they are so powerful yet we set them free so quickly, never really sure of what they mean nor how they will be understood, but somehow, I am driven to find the right words, the river which will carry my tears unto the heavens, the winds of summer to lift me up, the very words which will be the nails of my cross.
