Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Did I Miss Anything Important? For hours, for incarnations, I have been sleeping, my friend. Did I miss anything important? Please do tell me all the latest news. Do people still eat and drink? Do they still laugh and cry? Do they still love to move in this world? Nothing ever happened, you say? But don't you remember playing together in Mother's garden – In those summer days of forever when we lived truth instead of speaking of it? We were mighty paladins, crusading against our shadows. With stealth and courage we battled them, and they fled into the dusk. I know it was real because I dreamt of it in lifetimes of slumber. Will you disprove my dream? Whose dream, you say? Yes, it was whose. Now, for the sake of two friends, or one if you prefer, Let's join hands like we did as children, Dance with wild glee, And not speak another word about anything important.

Reminds me of a 'poem' by one of my gurus: All I Ever Really Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten - by Robert Fulghum Most of what I really need to know about how to live, and what to do, and how to be, I learned in Kindergarten. Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sandbox at nursery school. These are the things I learned: Share everything. Play fair. Don't hit people. Put things back where you found them. Clean up your own mess. Don't take things that aren't yours. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody. Wash your hands before you eat. Flush. Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you. Live a balanced life. Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work some every day. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands, and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are all like that. Goldfish and hamsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - they all die. So do we. And then remember the book about Dick and Jane and the first word you learned, the biggest word of all: LOOK . Everything you need to know is in there somewhere. The Golden Rule and love and basic sanitation, ecology and politics and sane living. Think of what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk about 3 o'clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or if we had a basic policy in our nation and other nations to always put things back where we found them and clean up our own messes. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together. Love, blessings and sunshine To All, Anna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 Dearest David, Welcome back. Forgetting means that we have met. To remember without words, to be quietly aware of awareness. It is all an open secret. Sharing love and friendship as best we can. Other than that there is nothing worth chasing after.
