Re: Good Visions thread
"Happy" means you're not paying attention. Balance means knowing the cake has a poop center, yet one is still able to smile.
Stuck off a cliff, hanging from a breaking branch, eating delicious berries from the ledge, while mean tigers circle below. Life.

He pretty much single-handedly introduced Indian non-dualism to the West, way back in the 1890s. Known as "Vedanta" there are now centers all over the US in most major cities. I'm a member of the one here in Portland. Great stuff. All religions in the world say the same thing.

I ain't there yet. I like the long road to honesty where we come to understand each others' complexities and frailties as challenges to others to find theirs.steve74baywin wrote:Man becomes what he thinks about. - Morris GoodmanI see a peaceful world where people voluntarily do the right thing.The thing always happens that you really believe in, and the belief in it makes it happen. - Frank Loyd Wright

People always have ,and always will, have vastly different opinions about what 'the right thing' is

Re: Good Visions thread
A part of the reason for this thread was to get some good visions and thoughts out there to aid in "reality creation", so here goes it
My business has improved and I'm working on a few websites to increase revenue, which will equate to better running VW's, camping trips and even a trip out west.
(My lack of activity here in part is due to me spending more time typing stuff for my benefit/income instead typing here in the forums)
I know so many of you miss me.

I miss those who don't know I miss them, sort of like I find attractive people are attractive when they don't already think that they are attractive or smart people who don't tell you first that they are smart ....steve74baywin wrote:A part of the reason for this thread was to get some good visions and thoughts out there to aid in "reality creation", so here goes it

Re: Good Visions thread
Thanks all for the kind words.
Something in the news has gotten me to take the time on here to post about it.
Not sure I mentioned this, we moved last week, just finished getting everything to the new place two days ago, tons of unpacking to do. (So that too takes away from my posting time)
