Yesterday in the quote I mention, I enumerated several uses for that occasional quip which came from the President of the United States, not the past but the CURRENT, AT A PRESS CONFERENCE ON RIGHTEOUSNESS. I found it repulsive that the audience, black and white, should salute him and not applaud and they were [...]
Yesterday on the horoscope margin of the cusp of the Nut Moon, I found a quotation that speaks well for our time: Who does what doesn’t matter, what does is who does it. I laughed but sorrowed as I believe as the Buddha does that action speaks well for us, even anonymous action.
What [...]
Strength is used to destroy homes and shelters of all kinds; I see strength as an asset and not in military or shoe size. I support those who want to remain as they are and support those who want to change and become additions to what ever is profitable. But what I don’t [...]
The Buddha and the Dalai Lama both said in Tricycle and in one of his espisalatory acts that the first requirement of Buddhism is to give to others. I was brought up in that manner and instinctively know how to give, my curret lover acts on that.

Yesterday in my manhole in Richmond, I discovered bones and didn’t announce it to the world, but kept it private. They were bones of my past and real dirty and grimey. Which do we prefer pictures of our past in relief or pictures in get ups on script? I say in relief [...]
In the news of Western Washington, D.C. a local reported that he had spent the grocery money on gravey and didn’t have a cent for heat. What gives?
I believe when we don’t spend money on luxuries we get spent. I have never been in debt, fortunately and own a home and a car [...]
We understand in Buddhism, that all is reverent to all and all is reverent to none. What can we make of that in light of the fact that we all are reverent to someone, our cat, dog, boyfriend, mom, husband, or dad. I am reverent to them all, even those who have died. [...]
