Guest guest Posted June 19, 2006 Report Share Posted June 19, 2006 L.E: Ten people talking. Most don't like each other very much. They are not friends and don't want to be friends. Solitary and alone they hurl themselves in combat with each other. Now and then saying " that was a good blow. " Larry Epston P: Why so negative? I like you Larry. I like everyone here, everyone likes me. I don't like everything they say, they don't like everything I say, either. It's not personal. Why have a persecution complex? It's not combat, Larry, it's a dance. Stop fearing your toes are going to be stumped to dust. Dance, Larry, dance with us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people just don't have rythm.... Larry thinks everything he says is Truth and anyone who challenges him is misled or just plain stupid. His mind is sealed shut like an old sewer hole.

Although I approve nearly half of his messages with leniency I'm not sure if this is working.

How that happens is ______. Not necessarily in an alphabetic order and we can play nice Hur. After all, this site is spiritual kindergarten ;-) ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW I LEARNED IN KINDERGARTEN (a guide for Global Leadership) All 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 sand pile at 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 every day some. Take a nap every afternoon. When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together. Be aware of wonder. Remember the little seed in the Styrofoam 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 Styrofoam cup - they all die. So do we. And then remember the Dick-and-Jane books 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 equality and sane living. Take any one of those items and extrapolate it into sophisticated adult terms and apply it to your family life or your work or government or your world and it holds true and clear and firm. Think what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk at about 3 o'clock in the afternoon and then lay down with our blankies for a nap. Or if all governments had as a basic policy to always put things back where they found them and to clean up their own mess. And it is still true, no matter how old you are, when you go out in the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.

But, just for the sake of whatever: It is one thing to " know " that one is already That, it could be another to " be " That " being " That. For some, there appears to be a separation between these " two. " Kindergarten seems normative, to me. For me and many, normativity is the very essence of struggle. I remember Kindergarten as quite a struggle against quite a bit. Not to argue with you, that would be a struggle. My experience is that IS is already all I need to know, be, become: ease is ease. Anything more or less isn't ease. Simpler than simple, already starts getting complicated. Anyway, didn't mean to complicate your simplicity. If I do, I'm sure you'll disregard. ;-) ~*~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am not criticizing Larry, although I do feel that his intensity is clouding the accuracy of his speculations. Rage, intense suffering, struggle and despair, do that. They tend to stupefy us. This is neither protest nor approbation. Merely my personal projection, without any engagement or denial. my 2 sense worth ~*~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

" Blessed Sacrament Elementary " ...so we had to sing low, or the nuns would switch us with their yard stick rulers.....those gals were tone deaf and always lookin' for the Charlie Browns.....that song still echoes down the hallways of my mind.......the old school building......that was old even then... is long gone........but the song carries on......the magic of music once again.
