Number 26

I found this leetle book at a garage sale called Living the Simple Life.  The book, that is.  The garage sale could have been titled, "Selling all my shtuff so I can try to live the simple life here do you need some VHS tapes and old ski boots how about a wicker bird cage?"


The leetle book is  by Elaine St. James and it chronicles tiny steps she took to get to a more simplified version of now. 


Number 26 is titled The Need To Make Wise Choices:


Since we have time for only a limited amount of stuff, we need to choose wisely what stuff we're going to allow to take up that time.  Since we only have a limited amount of time to spend or engage in leisure activities, we need to choose our friends and activities wisely.

Newton's Third Law

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.


This concludes our physics lesson for today.   

Natural Infinite Yes

i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes


(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun’s birthday; this is the birth
day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)


how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any–lifted from the no
of all nothing–human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?


(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)


---e.e. cummings, i thank You God for this most amazing

Instructions for living a Life.

Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
