IMPROMPTU PROMPTED BLOGGERISH

Siting Under That Tree Meditating. Ho Hum.

i like to read i read a lot all the time books on top of books, and inside of books i spend a lot of time inside of books and sometimes when i'm in a good one I plan to stay there for ever, I don't see how i can talk about favorite anythings when it comes to books especially lines, All the lines in books go to make up different parts of the amazing reality i live in in my books and just like i can't talk about my favorite children i can't pick my favorite lines in books, The three lines that make up all the letter Es are just as amazing as the 3 lines that make up the letters A, I did read something Buddha said recently, maybe Gautama if that's the way you spell it, he said - We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think.  When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves - and i think he is right on I mean really correct and true but then I believe everything is true unless proven otherwise and nobody can prove anything to me, so I would say more like the more we think about what we want to become and then become that if we decide that's the best thing to become and I'm not sure what he means by a pure mind pure what? and I've known some shadows that weren't so joyful and some that were down right ugly and terrifying and super unjoyful, but I do like the way he thinks and everything he ever said is true if you look at in the right way.
