Re: The need to communicate and share

My problem/issue is, I tend to be short and a bit flip with Mona cause I can say

I like her energy. Oh, and I may (is it true) get fired if I get caught doing

long email.

Here I am breaking my vow of two minutes ago. But I don't sense that there

is any argument in this statement so I feel quite fine about responding.

Yes, I do value respect. Respect for Ashok in whatever journey he's on,

respect for you being irritated, and respect for me in not being irritated.

We don't have to all think the same to give that respect, or hold back what

we think to avoid antagonizing someone else. I began by being bemused that

there was such a strong reaction to Ashok's inoffensive effusions, and I'm

even more bemused at the dissension because not everyone reacts the same

way. The whole thing is a great object lesson as to how all of our minds

generate needless tension by resisting what is. No wonder we have trouble

accepting the big stuff, like loss, death, illness, etc. Now here's the

question I find myself asking -- Can one love the mind that is always busy

scrurrying to produce conflict???? That's one for me to work through this

evening when I'm home and not stealing a few minutes away from work.

Fired? You mean freed up to have even more fun in your life?

Yes, exactly. Even more time if you include the time no longer spent eating.

People can not live without food.

Is that true?

I don't know anyone who's tried it.

There was a Breatharian around here once, preaching living on energy....til he

was seen coming out of a 7-11 with pepperoni sticks.
