Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and the wrong. Sometime in life you will have been all of these.
Lloyd Shearer

 

"Remember always that you are just a visitor here, a traveller passing through. Your stay here is but short and the moment of your departure unknown.

None can live without toil and a craft that provides your needs is a blessing indeed. But if you toil without rest, fatigue and weariness will overtake you and you will be denied the joy that comes from labour’s end.

Speak quietly and kindly and be not forward with either opinions or advice. If you talk much this will make you deaf to what others say, and you should know that there are few so wise that they cannot learn from others.

Be near when help is needed but far when praise and thanks are being offered. Take small account of might, wealth and fame for they soon pass and are forgotten. Instead, nurture love within you and strive to be a friend to all. Truly, compassion is a balm for many wounds. Treasure silence when you find it and while being mindful of your duties set time aside to be alone with yourself. Cast off pretence and self-deception and see yourself as you really are.

Despite all appearances, no one is really evil. They are led astray by ignorance. If you ponder this truth often you will offer more light rather that blame and condemnation.

You, no less all beings, have Buddha Nature within. Your essential mind is pure. Therefore, when defilements cause you to stumble and fall, let not remorse nor dark foreboding cast you down. Be of good cheer and with this understanding summon strength and walk on.

Faith is like a lamp and wisdom it is that makes the light burn bright. Carry this light always and in good time the darkness will yield and you will abide in the light."
The Dhammavadaka

 

is it really that hard, for humans to accept the existence, of anything that is not a reflection, of what they wish to pretend, about themselves?

words are not the best things to attempt to live by. you cannot breathe nor drink nor eat them.

ignore the wisdom of my words, for i am not wise, but don't ignore the kind of world you create by how you live in it, because as long as you live, you still do.

know this, that the unknown is unknown, and being unknown, does not in any way prevent the most wonderful and gratifying strangeness.

I like words. Being rather stupid myself, I am grateful for those more wise, erudite, and enlightened than I for recording their words for my edification.

 

but america didn't invent freedom, and the problem with rednecks and christians is that they do try to force their ways on others.
not all of them granted, and those that don't i'm fine with too. and guns are a problem, but only because they're mass produced,
nothing is solved by banning possession, granted (unless a person has proven themselves to be dangerous and irrisponsible with it),
but banning mass production and sale, doesn't stop responsible do it yourselfers from having whatever they can make themselves.
at any rate, i absolutely agree with the sentiment. i think one big thing that is missing, a couple of them, one is let people build whatever kind of shelter they would like to and live in it,
and another is let people relocate accross borders to their hearts content any time and for any reason they feel like it, just whatever country their in, that countries laws apply.
also the real america and its freedoms are what was there, before anyone ever heard the name america or applied it to it.

freedom isn't a country, its the earth and the trees and the little furry creatures with big sharp teeth. but it isn't created by destroying one either, nor by destroying anything else.

sushi from a gas station, i can't even imagine. but personaly i prefer, powdered chocklet, not maple syrup, and a spritz of lime rather then hot sauce.
(real maple syrup is ok, if you can actually find any that hasn't been adulturated with corn syrup or isn't just "maple flavored" corn syrup,
and if it has the kind of strong flavor most people think is maple, its corn syrup, the real thing is much more subtle)

 

Applies to Werewolves, only

“Even a man who is pure in heart,
And says his prayers by night,
May become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms,
And the moon is full and bright.”

actually were cats, elephants, manatees, and were anything else, but if a person be truly of innocent and good intent, transpeciesism needn't be a bane at all.
i know some cultures fear the skin dancer, but it need not be a thing of ill intent, not need it that a form that looses all sense of self.

 

Whatever you said is the real facts of the life.
