Hello, I've been lurking for a while and usually enjoy the discussions.

 

I am a starving artist, haiku poet and intermittent fencer.

 

I have been practicing philosophical taoism (Quietism) for almost a decade now, but find it hard to meet people who are spiritually centered in such a material world.

"Under all speech that is good for anything

lies a silence that is better.

Silence is deep as eternity.

Speech is shallow as time."

Shon: Thank you for the welcome; I've read some of your posts in various threads, and you always brighten up a conversation. The poem you shared is quite wonderful, very suitable to my outlook.

 

YawningMind: iie-- No, I am not Japanese, but I did grow up in Hawaii, where the language was taught in public schools. I've picked up the basics and bit more through self-study, but my ability in linguistics aren't as keen as they once were.
