One boy had an imaginary friend   ---  who stayed with him 'til the end.
Some friend!

One boy had an imaginary friend who surprised him by ceasing to be so imaginary.
Some surprise!

One boy had an imaginary friend who began to tell him that he was him.
NOW we 're getting somewhere!

One man had an imaginary friend who, after telling him that he was him, then told him that he could learn to separate himself from him.
Hey --  things are getting interesting NOW!

One man 's imaginary self began to slowly feel the silent presence of the real force driving this whole shebang, and then asked that I not say anything else about him and what he was doing.

 If you think that the mechanism in you that is responsible for thinking is, as it says that is  --  running your life, you are what is known as, "Coasting downhill with a cracked fuel tank. "

As they stood amidst the ever shifting sights and  sounds, a boy asked his father: "Just who is in charge of a circus? "
"Certainly not the one who thinks he is. " he answered,
a reply which for many years the lad did not recognize as being a full explanation.
& & &but it IS.
 
 
 
 
 

No matter where you live, the people downstairs either seem to have more fun, do have more fun, or else are the source of all your problems.
Which 'll be?  It appears difficult to have any effect on the situation in that they were already living there when you  moved in. 
There 's a funny thing though; everything you hear from "up here " is a distorted version of the original sound.

Fact: Everyone is a cannibal & a plagiarist.
The difference is that a man who has cleaned out his apartment doesn 't eat meat or take credit. 
 
 
 
 

One man 's motto is: "Live and learn from the second-by-second lessons   --  then lynch em and forget em! "

And someone writes: "How can you say what you did recently that to awaken requires a bad, a REALLY bad memory?!   Everything I have ever studied about this matter says that just the opposite is necessary?  Explain what you meant. "  I 'm sorry sir, but I don 't eat meat while working.
 
 
 

The elusive, (a more gentle euphemism for, "illusionary "), I that your thoughts say they, (I 'm sorry), that your thoughts say that YOU are, 
must be constantly shored-up, re-enforced, refinished, and re-assured of its existence and by continual referencing of its made-up memories of itself. 

Fact: Everyone has a sorry, self-serving memory  --  and knows it.
The difference is that a man who has left his apartment has forgotten about it.

Helpful Hint For The Few: Take no private credit for being "you ", and you will lose the useless weight of a nonexistent past.

A boy asked the ringmaster: "How can you wake up tomorrow if today is when you are asleep? "

(Tip: Never take peanuts from a kid.)
 
 
 

And now this late breaking story taking place on the other side of the world from where you are:
Anyone who will tell you how to awaken and achieve enlightenment, doesn 't know. 
Oh, they may know "how ", but they don 't know what it is.

A man on a train asked the conductor:
"What makes this thing run? " and he replied:
"Baltimore. "

Anyone who offers to teach you how to "change " has  found change for them self to be impossible & &which is why they now offer to tell you how.

Hint: Take the situation that the above words picture in your mind,
then apply them TO your mind. 
 
 
 

On a island not far from here, being "asleep " is defined as, "Unnecessary staring. "  which many sophisticated tourists reject as the too simplistic view of a too simplistic people.

Fact: Everybody is simplistic and tries to cover up the fact.
The difference is that a man without a permanent address finds it actually rather amusing,  (not to even mention, eye popping!, [or is that, "I " popping?!?])
 
 
 

People who worry a lot, sleep a lot.
People who sleep a lot do so to treat their worries.
Question: Do you find anything funny-curious in this?!

Fact: Everybody has worries about life.
Fact: Not everybody.

A boy asked his father: "Why did you become a mortician? " and he replied: "I lost my midwifery license. "
Hint: Get em, coming and going.
And a reader writes: "Are you back talking about thoughts again? "
Sir, I never leave.
&..oh yeah,  neither do you 
I just happen to know it.
