Dungeon

He whom I enclose with my name is weeping in this dungeon.

I am ever busy building this wall all around; and as this wall goes up into

the sky day by day I lose sight of my true being in its dark shadow.

I take pride in this great wall, and I plaster it with dust and sand

lest a least hole should be left in this name;

and for all the care I take I lose sight of my true being.

- Rabindranath Tagore <Geetanjali>

We are the mirror as well as the face in it.
We are tasting the taste this minute
of eternity. We are pain
and what cures pain, both.

Would you rather throw stones at a mirror ?
I am your mirror, and here are the stones.

AND

A night full of talking that hurts,
my worst held back secrets. Everything
has to do with loving and not loving.
This night will pass.
Then we have work to do.

AND

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
....................Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
....................Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
....................where the two world touch.
The door is round and open.
....................Don't go back to sleep.

- Rumi

"......I've learned that I still have a lot to learn.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel......"

"This is a group of people I used to go walking with."
--long pause

"That's me on the left."
--even longer pause

"On the right is the woman I married, Audrey."
--very long pause, speaker looks at shoes

"Which just goes to show that danger lurks where you least expect it."

Seeing into darkness is clarity.
Knowing how to yield is strength.
Use your own light
and return to the source of light.
This is called practicing eternity.

~Lao Tzu
