Marsha:
And I've had it up to my eyeballs with being a 'serious' woman. I
wore worsted wool suits with little ties, and adopted the
professional attitude of a Project Manager on a Corporate 500
mission. When my husband died, it didn't take long for me to see my
professionalism as false poop. Now I like laughing and being silly
sometimes, communicating in lyrics and offering
poetry. Painting! That is my life, with and without my
grandchildren. You don't need anyone to find things to laugh about
if you take Socrates' "Know thyself" seriously.
[Krimel]
Not to be overly critical but I would suggest that if one examines one's
life and only sees oneself. That is a life not worth living.
Krimel,
That is a very good point, but I see myself as a reflection of
everyone else. This self is nothing special, its basically like all
selves, but useful to me for investigation.
I think maybe from your original remark (kittens?) you didn't like
the post 'Inside Time' that I sent. Maybe I should have added some
context but I did think the photography stood on its own. I have
been investigating time having just read the book 'The Ending of
Time' which is a discussion between Krishnamurti and David Bohm on
the relationship of thought and time. Additionally, someone offlist
was describing the movement of thought in meditation as a wave on the
ocean, so I thought that the wave segment from 'Inside Time'
demonstrated well the eddys and whirlpools within a wave.
