    Awareness is action, action is awareness.

    Mind is body, body is mind.

    If you hint around at what you need words of wisdom with... or what you need inspiration on... I'll be able to relate and offer something helpful.

    Otherwise anything I say will unbelievably shallow to my own ears.

    "Worse than death with a guitar of rock."

    worse than that shallow.

    Wow!

    Sounds really interesting and I didn't know him. There's a slew of clergy from that era in Europe whose writing I can dig. Laurence Sterne- for one.

    All the way to Ralph Waldo Emerson in this country...

    I'll look into it. Thanks. :)

    P.S. Any author who has the word Paradoxes in a book title is going to raise an eyebrow of mine. ;)
