Hallo, Marsha!
Having a feminine voice in the group is an interesting addition, i think. Why
do you think the great scholars of mankind, the prophets, the poets
(with a few
exceptions), the sages and leaders of mankind have always been male?
There´s a
lot we can learn with females but they are often put behind the scenes... Why
would that be? Is woman evil, does she lead to confusion has she been less
imposing throughout time?
Yours truly,
Fernando.

John,
Fine, if this is what you think, because reality is whatever you think it to
be (ease to label, hard to define).

The way I look at it Marsha, is this: "What I think" is one thing
"Reality" is another. That's just your basic rule of being. But the line
between the two is flexible and a creative and conscious choice. THAT is
the MoQ insight into the situation.
The outline of my self is the inline of the world and the creative act of
drawing the line is a dynamic process.
which doesn't permit any sort of hard and fast line in the sand, the kind
that reductionist westerners crave.
oh well
Quality and me - easy to label, hard to define.

"how long" is a question about the future. Choice doesn't exist in the
future; Choice exists in the moment.

The boundaries of my finitude change with my choice of focus, my finitude
is
bounded by this focus. In the moment of choice, there are no
contradictions.

Ummm... lower left corner? Dead Center? It's not really up to me. I'll
let others decide. I'm lazy that way.
