That's not my take. Tart is meeting parry with parry. I think it's an appropiate response. I am often perplexed by Tart's perspectives, but who cares.

Life is so magnificently full of joy and wonder, of humor in every breath and vista, cascading insights, thankfulness, gratefulness (and great-fullness), music art, color, symphonies of sound, a huge Hi Def intense cinematic masterpiece ever playing, silence, and Vastness. > > > > > > > > > > > > You and others sometimes appear to (operative concept "appears to me") to thrill on a sparse and spartan diet of prickly thorns, dissention, judgments, smart and witty smack downs, creating boundaries and divisions, differentiating your selves into small boxes.

Take it or leave it. The choice is open to everyone. (And maybe I will wise up and someday revel in your harsher, differentiated View of things. I don't know. For now, I am happy in my retarded unsophisticated, undifferentiated living the joy of life.) > > > > > > > > > > > > A far as defending others, hardly. I am not interested in defending myself, much less others. However, take this morning, for example, I have had several nice, insightful (for me) exchanges with Turq. What am I to denounce or defend? In the past I have had nice exchanges with you. And with Vaj, Empty Bill, Nabs, Peter, and any number of others. Do I really need to join some invisible sides and denounce others? Simply because others see some flaws in others that are either invisible to me, or unimportant -- or if they don't see the same joy in life and people that I experience? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I see skies of blue..... clouds of white > > > > > > Bright blessed days....dark sacred nights > > > > > > And I think to myself .....what a wonderful world. > > > > > > > > > > > > The colors of a rainbow.....so pretty ..in the sky > > > > > > Are also on the faces.....of people ..going by > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Thats the best scripture I have read or heard in a long time. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > --- In [email protected], tartbrain <no_reply@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Reactions, assumptions, roles, judgements, smackdowns, isolated blazing balls of brahamn, going somewhere, becoming something, making lists of better than this or that. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Ah, seeing oneself everywhere in the actions of everyone in the great mirror of life. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Yes!
