I am aware

in my practice...and understanding...

Everything IS of The TAO.

YOU.....me.....the tree.....the stream....the air.....the mountain....Everything.

whether one "knows" it or not....one is apart of everything...and therefore ARE "that"...The TAO.

my suggestiong is...to embrace it.

to fully....BE...."that".

therefore,

if one knows themselves...as a apart of IT all....as in, one KNOWS in the depth of their BE-ing,

that they ARE of The TAO...

why then "over think" it all?

eh?

gently.....fully......BE.

see?

just BE....you....

and i will BE....me.

and we can sit here as BE-ings....of....The TAO....

fully aware of WHO WE ARE.

in balance.

in peace.

in a LOVING state of BE-ing.

blessings to you....and everyone/everything....within The TAO.

a possible future in the military?

that might be an interesting life choice, indeed.

you seem VERY interesting right now....a "time" in the military will cure you of that, i'm guessing.

"they" aren't known for folks "thinking" as individuals...

can't have a nail HIGHER (or LOWER for that matter) than the other nails.

in any military outfit, especially in the US MARINE CORPS.

((just talking from direct experience, that's all))

but, again...you are HERE to experience LIFE...right??

in that light....

blessings to you....for all the choices you shall make....and life experiences you shall undertake.

namaste

raise my hand, eh??

when shall i do so?

how will you know?

ahhh.... you are joking, i am sure.

**chortle**

good one!

through many twists and turns....i found myself here.

wandering around....enjoying myself.....i thought i would remain....

thus, i shall sit for awhile and listen well to the wisdom of those before me.
