Humans have two realities: one which physically means something,
and another that has no meaning other than that which
your thoughts give to it;
yet in spite of that clearly visible fact, in many, many instances
men tend to attribute to the latter the greater import.
 
 

A man with true understanding has no personal views --  unless you count those concerning his survival --  which after all are not, “personal”
but the same as everyone else’s.
 
 

Urging others to improve themselves  --  causes them to hate themselves.
 
 

Is it prudent to try to change something you do not fully understand?
 
 

Anyone who believes that anything is serious
is an: idiot, fool, imbecile, moron, normal.
 
 

Everybody is on something  --   and only he who is not knows what it is.
 
 

That DJs are celebs says all concerning ordinary men’s concept of talent --
and even intelligence, since plagiarists & parasites
are accepted as thinkers IF they have the right attitude and style.
 
 

All words are fiction  --  it’s all fiction  --  everything is fiction  --  (except of course,
what you can touch....................................but no one is confused about that, right?!)
 
 

If you have reached a place where you can’t tell whether
you’re coming or going --  you’re going.                            (Keep it up!)
 
 

There was once a plane that would never land.
 
 

There is a rhythm to distraction and a rhythm to clear sight;
and a winding road is not the path to the goal.
 
 

Another acid difference between ordinary thought and the freshened-up
variety is that the former takes the words: “The world is big enough for everybody” to be a philosophical reflection rather than a
scientific observation.
Men’s lives are filled with such examples.
 
 


One world had an army & a navy protecting it;
the army did all of the unheralded grunt work,
while the navy had the bands, fancy uniforms and dress parades.

The world had no seas.








Once a man sees for himself what is going on, he only wants one thing after that --
                                            --  except he doesn’t know what it is.
 
 

Only those smarter than you will tell you how smart you are;
those dumber are the ones who tell you you are dumb.
 

Living by rules holds civilizations together, and individuals back.
 
 

For forty years one man wrote about the human condition, only to eventually realize that he was one.
 
 

One Of The Rules Of The Bright Road:
 Have a baby a day  --   then abandon it.
 
 

Everyone rides a rhino carrying a macaw in their hand.;
those seeking a more meaningful ride at first try to work with the bird;
then with increased awareness, realize that the beast is the answer.

Trying to train a rhino causes nothing but grief to both beast & trainer,
okay, to just the trainer  --
........assuming the beast isn’t stupid enough to pay him any attention.
 
 

A planet being constantly struck by lightning
physically acknowledges the fact  –   but does not seek meaning therein.

Can you not be as swift as a planet.

Important Reminder and Warning:
Two days ago it was discovered that over the last eighteen months in which I have been
writing this daily feature, someone gained access to my web page,
and has been periodically pulling down what I wrote and posted for that day,
and rewriting it to say just the reverse of what was originally said,
then putting it back on site as though it was the day’s real News;
the problem is that we cannot tell on which days this occurred.
 
 
 
 

Do those of you who really want to realize the truth of things for yourself understand that tigers speak a secret language which is valid only to other tigers.
 
 
 
 
 

A father said to a son: "I do not mind helping annoy you out of your slumber as long as you remember that is its purpose."
