Here then there
There and here

From one point to another
I find life amusing

The debit card
Went off "without a hitch"

The receptionist said
I caught a bit of snarkiness in her tone

But I remembered the Tao Te Ching
"Return Bitterness With Care"

Haha
The more I live
The more I see the great value in this text


Well, it's not my fault
The bank put up the fraud prevention
Because she had to void
A transaction and try again

And what is this life
And what is it about
I've found it to be one big program

And people have their big egos
And they want to drive Mercedes Benz
And they get worked up over money
And it's all just a bunch of nonsense

And they spend their whole lives working
To get a big house
And then spend most of their time in maybe
Two or three rooms, lol

Maybe one day I will have mobile home
And drive across the country
My shoulder is a bit better

But my left side is still a bit larger
Than my right
And it's okay

People have much worse disabilities
Anyway

So just be grateful
Let's not complain
Nobody survives
Life the game

In the end our physical bodies die
But not our souls
If you give love a try

Love one another
Do unto others
As you would have them do unto you

Be like the nourishing water
It's good for you

The sage has no mind
Of his own
But loves the whole world
As his own self
