My favorite new old saying is: "I always succeed, I just don't often know
what I'm doing" [but I always do what I know until it becomes 'obvious'
that I don't know what I'm doing]

Finding that out is what makes life worth living...and fun.
Sometimes it's the sort of fun that peeling off an old sunburn is.
 It really hurt once upon a time. [but it's still something I did]

 Currently, I'm reading "Psycho Cybernetics" which places the brain as a
servo mechanism. [And a very powerful one...not to be underestimated]
 The concept evolved out of the robotics industry when they were attempting
to discover the source of motivation. [The robot always does what it's told
to do...why do we have to tell it to do stuff and why does it do crazy
stuff after it's told what to do?]
 The writer is a plastic surgeon who applied the concept to what the people
he encountered in his practice were displaying...finding that a simple
realization of the process..."This", is what I'm "doing"... worked
miracles. [often making the plastic surgury undesirable and unneeded. In
that respect, beauty is an opinion and people really do want to agree with
you.]
..but that no realization or detail can ever be forced upon someone. 

  Attack and defense are equal and identical forces, each validating the
other. An attack is what makes something worth defending. The fight itself
is a distraction and nothing ever changes till all the warriors wear
themselves out. A 'person' running a defensive program will always find a
suitable attack. 

 A 'person' is not the program the person is running. People do quite often
'think' they are though.

 A failure of a program is as much a miracle as a success and works exactly
the same way in every single respect.

 Believe what you want, you always do anyhow... no matter what.

 A true gift comes without strings attached or it's not a gift.  God
wouldn't put strings on a perfect gift, now would he?

As 'healer' I just listen, smile and nod a lot...plant a seed and walk
away. [Often just a touch, a smile and a wink.]
 It ain't my garden.  If I grab a hoe and start weeding, my work never ends
and theirs never starts.
 That would get in the way of my precious laziness.
 I might wind up dragging a following around. 
 Can't have that! LOL

[Being 'right' is WAY too much work!]
