Alas,


(David Hill photo)


an old Zen parable:

A man walking across a field encounters a tiger. He fled, the tiger chasing after him. Coming to a cliff, he caught hold of a wild vine and swung himself over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above.Terrified, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger had come, waiting to eat him. Two mice, one white and one black, little by little began to gnaw away at the vine. The man saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine in one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted!

Men often make up in wrath what they want in reason.

Fall down 9 times. Stand up 10.



Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. -Dr. Seuss

Silence is gold.



A wise old owl sat in an oak.
The more he saw the less he spoke.
The less he spoke the more he heard.
Why can't we all be be like that old wise bird?

The Beginning.



LIVE. LAUGH. SMILE. DANCE.


To be aware of a single shortcoming within oneself is more useful than to be aware of a thousand in somebody else. Rather than speaking badly about people and in ways that will produce friction and unrest in their lives, we should practice a purer perception of them, and when we speak of others, speak of their good qualities.

- Dalai Lama

Peace to the old. Hello to the newcomings.



Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else;

you are the one who gets burned.
