One who seeks foremost to be kind
supersedes any seeking always to be right;

it is more important to be kind
than it is to be right.

Information is not necessarily Understanding
just as Knowledge isn't always Wisdom.

Nourish what inspires; inspire what nourishes!

No one has Time: Time has us.

Make Time
or it will pass you by.

it's one thing to be a player,
but it's altogether different
to be the player of players

Everyone has one life to live.
Lived well enough,
one life each should be plenty.

It's your life:
find meaning in the pain
and nourish what helps to numb it.

The issue with the Ego isn't the Ego itself:
like many other aspects of sentient Life,
Intention and Willpower navigate a Vessel
whither it may will to be- consciously or no!


True Wisdom is subtle: implicit
in every single last one of the ten-thousand things.

Incidentally, such subtlety nests grave danger:
such capacity to be overlooked or ignored-
manipulated, extorted, distorted;
abused, neglected: abandoned.
Antagonized.

Beware. Tread lightly.
Please think and act with utmost care.

Be as Tao; as the rest.
Non-seek Zen mind.

Everything is precisely as it must be,
with exception of Human mentality.

Follow your Heart, but utilize thy Brain.
Find a purpose and learn from the pain.
Through just struggle does One justly gain.
By Empathy, could we all do just the same?

Let's just try it and see, shall we?
The Force takes care of it's own.

Thank you for reading.
Blessings upon thy Path.

Knowing how to learn effectively by counter-example,
One teaches oneself plenty by mere observation;
foremost via honest observation of One's very own Self!

Focus on the Positive
but do not shun Negative.

Respect the Negative
by way of Positive reflection.

And, indeed, vice versa;
as if some twisted cosmic joke,
yin and yang shall interplay
e'ermore, ad infinitum.

Sample size is invalid without complementary points of reference.
Use of Yin require finesse with Yang,
as action requires finesse with non-action.
It's at least as much about omission as addition.
The influence of negative space is profound.

Welcome to Taoist philosophy;
to astrophysics and psychology.
Welcome to symbology; mythology.

Welcome to Life.
May your stay be meaningful.

Realize many things are not goal-oriented,
nevertheless, have the will to pursue goals.

... and I woke to a strangely familiar
lapse of memory known to many
as "Life."

It's not enough to feel;
you've got to suffer
to really appreciate it.

That's the dark joke of Life.

Wisdom prepares when unseen.
Folly develops for all to see.

Truth today is knowledge.
Truth tomorrow is wisdom.

Titles are like words, themselves: a tool; utility;
they help to effigize something that we may communicate it,
but that very effigy can also serve to sell it short; to undermine it.

That is among the reluctances of the Wise to share in words their wisdom.
Life itself teaches any student who is willing to be humbled and to learn.
What sets the Wise apart is mere will and intent.

If it's important enough to worry about,
it's powerful enough to be seen to.
