Mego

"My son, it is between two wolves...

One is filled with anger, hatred, envy, sorrow, regret, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego...

The other is filled with joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith..."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which one wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied "the one I feed".

Oct 06, 2003 # AIM Absense

I'm in the process of figuring some things out.

For those of you who have been wondering why I haven't been on AIM, it's because I've had it turned off. I'm taking a break from it. I've found that it leads to much scattering of concentration, and I tend to not give people my dedicated attention.

When walking, just walk.
When sitting, just sit.
Above all, don't wobble.
-Yun-Men
Plus, I need to ration clicks to keep my hands and wrists healthy.

Anyway, here's some groovy tunes I found today: Absorb radio #12

Oh yeah, and go see Lost in Translation. So good.
