The Semi-lucid Ponderings of an Insane Primate
as written down by Charles Butt

Hi! Er, Excuse me. For a second there, I thought I was somebody else.
I’m either standing on my head or else the world has turned upside down (again). The fact that you are reading this adds substance to the postulate that a monkey left alone long enough with a typewriter would eventually produce a manuscript. (I wish I could type)
I’m lounging in my recliner listening to the wind wail through the trees as it challenges the T.V. for dominance over my senses. I ponder the possibilities of writing my thoughts down. I sometimes wonder about that monkey.
Monkey see monkey do.
What possible word combinations may be used to express the totality of it all? I admire Douglas Adam’s answer of “42’. I’ve yet to disprove it or come up with a better answer, yet still my thoughts run amuck. At times the words become meaningless as they get tangled up with the thoughts trapped in the ether of my consciousness.
Is it not to be known nor expressed, but only glimpsed and imagined, based upon faith and observation, experience and curiosity, openness and the fear of God?
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” (Proverbs 1:7)
Just how far can we go? Can we ever get there knowing that no matter where we are, we will always be here? Here is where we are. Here is what we make it. Here, where I’m at, is a great place. There is plenty to eat and usually a variety of party favors to indulge in. Frequent guests break up moments of unproductive inaction which usually consists of countless hours surfing the cable, rarely remaining on any particular channel for a shows entirety.
I suspect John Prine was right when he sang “Blow up your T.V.”
There are times when I muse that T.V. and air conditioning are largely responsible for the deterioration of our society, but I know that we ourselves are the ones responsible and that we make it what we may, trapped in the beliefs that we can’t make a difference.
Do the right thing, but do it right now and you better get it right.
How can we know what is right when the people telling us what is right, don’t always know? Are these the sins of the fathers passed on to the children?
Ignore your animal instincts! What can instincts know? How can animal tendencies be right? They are blissed.
Have you ever wondered how we have the natural world and the world dominated by man? It’s all one world.
When was it that man became so independent of his natural self that he could ignored it in his arrogant and misguided attempts to dominate the environment which he exploits to obtain temporary gratification?
I’m sorry, it is terribly unfair of me to generalize all men as selfish egotistical creatures. In reality I believe most men desire to live in harmony with each other and their environments. My observation is that previous conditions have been impressed upon our psyches which hamper us in our attempts at unification with ourselves and our world.
I believe that the vast majority crave what is best for the whole even though trapped in the moment and unable to appreciate future consequences of their actions.
Again I must apologize for generalizing. I realize that a person is a person is a person and that we are all different and unique in our individual levels of understanding and existence.
I keep digressing, getting caught up in tangents triggered by the immediate stimuli of the moment while trying to contemplate the infinite absolute.
You might say that
I’ve stumbled in a hole while pondering about the whole.
A hole
in the whole! A donut maybe, God has blessed the holes also.
A hole in the whole, I believe that is a paradox. Our existence is full of paradox.
An infinite absolute however is an oxymoron
Oh how I love the forever yielding preciseness of words.
Do we go to extremes in order to maintain equilibrium?
Do we reject God as we ordain our own divinity?
Why do we do the things we do? Why do we think the thoughts we think?
Will we ever overcome the negative conditionings impressed upon us during our youths?
Will we ever become cognizant of being manipulated through calculated dosages of mass hysteria?
I’ve digressed once more. How easy it is to get caught up in the turbulent affairs of our world. It is understandable when you consider that our major sources of information are the various media that dissimulate information for the sake of profit and power.
Lifetimes are spent appreciating the multitudes of paradoxes.
While ignorance might be bliss, wisdom is blessed.
How come we can label a substance is pure when it is a mixture?
Pure water
100% dihydrogen oxide
H2O
For every oxygen atom, there are two hydrogen atoms. Either elements by itself is highly reactive. Explosive! You need oxygen to breath. You need oxygen to have a fire. Water is great for putting out fires. Water is a necessity for life, as we define it. Yet too much can be deadly, not enough can be deadly also. Water is the greatest solvent known to science often referred to as the universal solvent.
Carbon
The favorite element of organic chemists, occurs in a multitude of combinations, two of these, diamond and graphite, have some amazing similarities and perhaps even more amazing differences. Both are composed of virtually 100% carbon atoms arranged in six atom rings. Their chemical formulas are: Diamond = C6, Graphite = C6
Graphite is one of the softest materials known. It is often used as a lubricant due to its nonabrasive characteristic, it is opaque and is used for lead in pencils. Diamond is the hardest material known to man. In its purest form it is transparent and refracts light more brilliantly than any other substance. It is amazing how some substances can be so similar and also so very different at the same time.
We know the one constant in the universe is change. If it were not for change there could not be any differences.
We would not exist if not for our differences and yet our differences may lead to our destruction.
I’ve always heard what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.
I wonder sometimes if we ever know if we are dead or truly alive?
I’ve often said, “seeing is believing”, but that’s just a holdover from my Grandma being from Missouri.
You gotta have faith!
I’m so sure I’m confused!
To realize the wondrous awesomeness of the totality overwhelms any conscious attempt to describe and express the experience.
Is realization an end or a beginning? Both!
Catch 22
If you think that you are crazy then you are not actually crazy, because a crazy person wouldn’t think that he is crazy. Would this work say, if you think that you are sane, then you are actually insane, because a sane person wouldn’t think he was insane? Think about it. Myself, I don’t have the time.
The end or the beginning, which came first? Which time? Who’s on first? No who’s on second, etc…(my thanks to Abbot and Costello).
Turn around!
Again
Ever wonder why it’s
so hard to start at the beginning, the right place to start?
It’s
because it started in the middle.
I always knew that I was ambidextrous, but it wasn’t until I realized I was also dyslexic that things finally started making sense.
Day won over
night
one to nothing.
Night tried to swallow the day and choked
on the light.
The super computer in the Hitchhiker Guide answers the question,“ why life, the universe and everything ?” The answer it gives,”42”, is a simply brilliant answer, for what would it matter if it could not be shared, if it were only for one, and not for two?
That Away
Going, coming,
going, coming
up and down, in and out
back and forth,
start
and end.
Wind it up and start again
the endless chase
of
life
and death
night and day
work and play.
Embrace the
rhythm of the day,
stay and play,
don’t become the predators
prey.
A ray of light reveals what may
become the dawn of
tomorrow’s day.
Don’t fear the dark
for it be true
without
it numbers would be less than two.
If you think you’ve seen everything, can you be free?
Be Delite Fool
Behold!
Beware!
Be
still
Between
Because becoming behind the scene
unbeknown
you might be seen.
Exposed by light
you should not dread
it
doesn’t matter,
we needed bred.
It rose and fell and
eventually swelled.
Baked till done
what a glorious smell
Which came first the chicken or the egg? Neither. The rooster came first, then we heard a crow, but that was the rooster also. The egg must have come second. The chicken didn’t have to cum for the egg to grow, but she sure needed to be there.
Do we wind it up at
the beginning or the end?
The end is where you wind up before you
start it up again.
It is so easy to get
caught up in the details.
It is great getting caught up in
details.
Don’t lose touch
of the pulse.
Avoid the clusterfucks!
Erase the attention
deficit. All you have to do is pay attention.
What did you say?
I’ve never had a desire to write and have gone so far as to question my intent to add more words to paper. I’ve read, (I believe somewhere in the Apocrypha) that all that needs to be written has been written. I suppose that before the masses could read they didn’t need the written word. Then came a time when the preachers read the words at the masses. I question the results of this one way dialogue. The argument in my being that convinced me to write is that maybe all the words that need to be read haven’t been read yet.
Maybe?
Believe!
But don’t believe everything you hear, see, or read and likely some of the things you do believe. It’s probably that there are a few things that you don’t believe that you should.
That person that you see who looks like he needs help, may be you!
I believe that I’ve always wanted to go home I just didn’t want to leave where I was.
Leave!
Go
away!
What way?
My way?
Your way?
God’s way!
By
way
That a way.
You can’t get there from here.
What is the
difference between belief and truth?
If we believe that it’s
true, is it?
We say that justice is blind, yet we know that all things are known by God, even what’s in our hearts and our minds.
What do you want?
To
live,
to love and to be loved
Compassion,
feelings.
I
want to be.
I want to understand what can’t be understood.
I
don’t want to be misunderstood.
I don’t want to be
misguided.
I want to overcome my limitations.
I don’t want to
be afraid.
I want knowledge, wisdom and understanding.
I want
it all and I want if for all.
The fear of the Lord
is the beginning of knowledge! Proverbs 1:7
Fear –
profound reverence and awe. (Websters)
We are nothing but
what God has given us.
In the beginning there was nothing.
No,
in the beginning there was God.
Knowing the beginning is a
start.
In fact the beginning is where it all started and it
started in the middle of it all. That would be “a”. “a” is
in the middle of “it all”.
God is the beginning and the
end.
The between, the after and the now.
God is all
All is
one
None are greater than one
No, none are not greater than
one.
There is only one
that’s all!
We men believe that we know the difference between good and evil. Deep down with the guidance of wise counsel we probably do, however it’s true that the thing that is good for me might not be good for you.
There is one absolute. That’s everything.
We question.
We think.
We’re still questioning.
We’re still thinking.
We call ourselves intelligent creatures because of our reasoning ability.
It’s a wonder that we ever truly know anything.
I saw a woman I was attracted to. I thought, “If I go over and say a word to her maybe we could get to know each other.” I did. We did.
The Significance of Words
A word.
A word
started it all.
A word filled the void
Bridged the gap,
Broke
the ice,
Woke the dead.
A word healed.
A word killed.
A
word encouraged!
A word stilled
A word defended.
A word
betrayed.
A word can start out live
Get turned around
And
come back evil.
Just a word.
One word.
But add an S
And a
word becomes a sword.
Be careful how you use your words.
They
may turn on you
If your intents aren’t true
And even if
repeated
May still be misconstrued.
Ever thought about Dogma? Did you realize that Dogma spelled backwards is Am God? And do you appreciate that a dog ma is a bitch. No offense intended.
Is it God’s intention for us to use what was given us to hold us back? To hold others back?
Look!
If you have
to ask than you can’t!
So quit asking.
Does this mean I don’t
have to ask?
I wonder if that means its ok.
It’s O.K. if I
don’t ask.
I guess I’ll find out.
I wonder if I should have
asked, first?
Life is full of wonder, Live a wonderful life.
Look!
I’ve
already answered you.
You don’t have to ask again.
I don’t
have to ask.
Cooool!!!
All Right!!!
Get behind me
Satan!
Wouldn’t you rather have Satan where you can keep an eye
on him?
Who’s behind this?
Behind the scenes?
Behind every successful man is a good woman.
Shucks I’d much rather look at her as Satan.
Get Back to it
What’s in back of
door number two?
Watch your back!
Don’t look back!
Get
back
Back up
Take it back
Let’s go back
Back in
Back
out
Out back
Welcome Back
They’re back
We’re
back
Front to back
Back to back
Back and forth
Back
again
Come back
Head back
Back in time
Back to the
future
Back to the beginning
Back to now
Preciseness is not a characteristic of language.
Left; right
Right,
wrong
If you’re not good you’ll be left behind.
If you’re
bad you’ll be taken away.
It’ll be taken away from you.
Use
it or lose it.
Justice will
prevail!
Just ice broke a hole in the hull of the Titanic.
Just
ice
how tragic!
Know when to escape a no win situation.
Is transcendental meditation where you think about nothing, because you are thinking about it all?
“?”
Believe
Be
free
Before
Becoming caught
Between beginning and
begot.
Behold
Because
Betwixt bemused and beknown
Must
all be questioned before belief?
Can you be freed if
you’ve never been caught?
You can’t free what’s already
free.
Celebrate the life
that is
Live the celebration that is forever
Be thankful for the written words that allow us to escape the ill-conceived notions of the realities that are embedded in our minds. They provide hope and incite ambitions by revealing possibilities to achieve what was once unthought of. The written word may illuminate ancient wisdoms, yielding clues to the pathways of being.
Understand that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
Appreciate the responsibility of the individual.
One can affect the outcome.
One can make a difference.
One does tip the scales.
Is one a prophet for the benefit of all or does one profit for oneself, heedless of the cost to the whole?
It’s been forty-five years since I left the security of my mother’s womb. I learned to walk fairly early. It’s taken me a lot longer to learn how to speak.
It’s been said that “the English and the Americans are separated by a common language.” It’s not the language that separates us but our failure at understanding, perhaps due to our own desires to be understood instead of trying to understand others.
The mindset of my parents was that children should be seen and not be heard. They made the decisions for me. The times that I had something to say, to clarify or just articulate, in my desire to become an active participant rather than a passive, captive listener. I would (like now) get so caught up attempting to expound so much, so fast, that I’d lose track of my chain of thought. Then, while hesitating, trying to choose the best words, another would interrupt, stifling any input and frustrating my efforts. When I do have an idea of the right words I usually have trouble pronouncing or spelling them.
It’s typical when thinking that I’m close to clasping that totality of understanding that I’ll realize I may be three hundred and sixty degrees off.
I want to be with you and I believe you want to be with me. At least that’s what your words say, but you seem distracted. I wish that you knew what you wanted. If you don’t understand me then maybe I’d better leave.
Ever been overwhelmed by sincerity?
Let it be.
Leave
it alone
It will happen.
You can make it happen.
Just don’t
force it
Let it.
Embrace it.
Make it.
Don’t try to
contain it.
Was it sent from God of sent away from God?
On the outside looking in I think, “That’s where I want to be.” On the inside looking out I wonder why I let myself get in this predicament understanding that no matter where I stand I know where I am and that’s where I should be.
Understanding gives sure support on which to establish a lasting structure.
I realize you see it so clearly, but why won’t you realize that I don’t.
Let us help each other reach an understanding that we may build a lasting relationship upon.
Union/one
On the same
planet
yet separated into continents.
On the same continent
but
divided by countries.
In the same country
but split into
states.
In the same state
but separated into counties.
In
the same county
yet divided into cities.
In the same city
yet
divided into streets.
On the same street
yet separated into
houses.
In the same house
yet divided into rooms.
In the
same room,
yet divided by our minds.
Of the same mind
We are
some
And united we have won.
Divided into
separate rooms without recourse for intercourse
Ununited we can
never be as one. We can never become three.
Is ununited a double negative?
Who are the true terrorists? The ones trying to destroy us or the ones that prey upon our fears?
What are you afraid
of?
Why are you afraid?
We don’t need to break through!
Just
pass through.
Easy.
We have the keys.
So what!
There are
no locks.
All we have to do is let ourselves go.
We don’t
need a reservation.
In fact, having reservations will prevent us
from going.
Our lives are not for us to lose.
On the contrary,
our lives are for us to use.
Free ourselves from our isolation and
celebrate our reunion.
We can’t make anyone understand.
We
can help others understand.
Our diversity insures our survival. Our understanding insures the survival of our diversity.
You hardly realize
that you are moving when you’re traveling at the speed of light. As
you approach the limits you sometimes sense the rhythms. Your heart
for all practical purposes; is beating so fast (slow) that it appears
like it is not beating at all and your breaths are long and deep,
your eyes burn with the fire of euphoria. You explode in an infinite
number of particles radiating though the cosmos of being in search of
each other.
Seeking
finding,
joining,
growing,
knowing,
being,
coming
home,
at the speed of light.
I am not the
tempter, though I might be tempted.
I am not the guide, though I
might be followed.
I desire to make the passing easier, though
some stumble over me.
I was a seeker.
I am not a confederate,
but I do believe in the South. I also believe in the North, the East
and the West. I believe in the top, the bottom, inside and out birth,
death, and life everlasting. I believe in God, the Spirit, and the
Son. I believe in the prophets. I believe in heaven and hell and we
do have a choice. I believe in love, knowledge, wisdom, and
understanding. I believe in forgiving.In fact I believe that
forgiving is one of the greatest gifts and that this great gift is
also for giving. A gift to give yourself, as well as to others
Drifting in awe, the
chaos is still there but I sense the patterns emerging, simmering,
with the essence of order. Fleeting randomness gives way to the
wonder of the order of the totality, the now and forever again.
A
gain,
To gain an insight, To inspire a secret action, To be, there
is no question, Just a quest; with challenges and trials, with pain
and terror, hope and euphoria. A level head with a stout heart and a
desire for righteousness and the determination to preserve will start
you on the path. A loose grip on your emotions will hinder your
journey. Reservations are worthless. Seek and you shall find. I know
this to be true. What you are looking for has always been here. I
also know that we sometimes find what we are looking for pretty fast
but it may take years to realize that we actually found it. Sometimes
we’ll think that we found it only to realize later that we were
wrong. It’s usually in the last place we look and ironically it was
never lost in the first place.
I wanna go play in
the mud.
We have red mud in Alabama. It stains everything.
That’s
not the mud I want to play in.
We use white mud at work. (I finish
sheetrock)
This mud washes off with just water, but I don’t want
to play with the same mud I work with.
I know this girl, she’s
some fine mud.
In Genesis God took dust, added water and created
man,
what incredible Mud.
Keep your temper and you keep your ability to moderate a situation. If steel loses its temper it loses its ability to keep an edge.
Proverbs states:” A man whom gains control over his anger has achieved a greater conquest than a man who has conquered cities.”
A person who has lost his temper has lost control of his emotions, has lost control over himself and his situation. Many times the inability to keep ones temper will start a chain reaction causing all involved to lose their tempers also. A light touch and a soft response can restore another’s temper, easing a stressful situation and even reversing what appeared to be a negative situation.
I’m 100% me.
That
means that I’m pure me.
Trouble is there is some of myself and
some I mixed in and it would help if I weeded out or adjusted some of
myself to make a better, more perfect, me.
Yeah! You’re
making sense. Trouble is it’s just pocket change.
I’ll have to
make a lot more sense to afford to feed myself.
Sense, cents,
change
Thank God my friends have sense.
A lot of sense in
change
I wonder if I’ll
ever get where I’m going and if it’s someplace I’m trying to
get back to.
I’m taking a short cut (Ha!)
So just expect me
when I get there.
It’s a new (to me) short cut so I’ll
probably be awhile.
If a person is
inspired then he’ll get inspiration anywhere and anytime.
If
he’s not, he won’t.
Nature loves
consistency and change.
Revolution, Evolution
Change drives
change.
What has happened to
trust?
It got misplaced when placed with man.
The airplane pilots’ creed, “In God we trust. Everything else we check!”
It’s no good if it
never gets used.”
It’s no good if it’s not there when you
need it.
It’s great if it’s multifunctional.
If things don’t add up right, you may need a new accountant.
A blank it covers all.
Why can’t you just
let it be?
Because it is and that is what it’s for.
It is for
us however we use it
It will always be.
We, however, ununited
will not
we must grasp it and embrace it in our hearts
and
share it with each and all
that we may become one
and becoming
one have returned to that from which we came.
All one
always
world
without end,
become a world within ourselves embracing all.
Good morning.
Come
in.
The morning is past
The crying done
The birth of the new
day has begun.
The monkey’s mind
just won’t stop running.
Maybe one day we’ll be able to tell
what direction it’s running to.
I lied! But it
wasn’t me.
Or I don’t remember
Or something….
Nevermind.
Why does the earth
spin round?
It spins to ensure a balance.
It spins to insure
diversity.
It spins to sustain life!
Life still struggles
in the decomposing corpse of myself.
Its grip weakens as its
desperate attempts to hold on subside.
Make way for the true
spirit.
Embrace it as it takes you back to where you are.
Back
to where you’ll always be.
Back to where it began.
The walls exist no more and are stronger than they will ever be, bound by the spirit of wholeness.
Something is astir.
To be some, one must
be three.
The you, the me & the still one
If someone tells you
(or themselves) that they care for nothing or no one.
Surely
they’re not saying that they care for none.
How do you care for
none?
None need no care.
None was before.
None will remain.
I wonder if I’ll ever wake up from the dream that is the reality of my life. If I don’t get the signals mixed, the receiver fails. If the receiver works the static distorts the message to the point where it can be misinterpreted.
Choose your poison.
It’s all good.
What’s the law of the jungle?
Be and eat,
eat and be. See what there is to see.
Monkey see, monkey
do,
Monkey do the same as you.
I C U I B U
What do I know?
I
know nothing.
What don’t I know?
Anything
What do I want
to know?
What I need to know.
What is there to know?
Know
that there is!
There is?
Yes.
Do I need to know where I’m
at?
It can help.
Where am I?
You are, hear?
What?
You
are here.
I am, hear?
Hear what?
Hear what I am.
What are
you?
I am what I am
“I’m Popeye the sailor man. Toot!
Toot!”
“Who are you, toot, toot! Toot, toot!”
I am who I

Where are you?
I am where I am
I am here.
Are you
there?
Yes I’m there.
Can you get here from there?
Yes,
get rid of the t.
Drop the t off there and there becomes
here.
Drop the t off its and its becomes is.
What is? It
What
is it?
No, what is?
Know what is!
Know what what is!
What’s
it.
It is it.
The hole is
empty.
He is risen.
He has come and he is risen.
If you
missed him the first time
You might get him when he comes back.
He
might get you when he comes back.
But, don’t hold your breath or
count on it (unless you’re trying to get rid of the hiccups).
What
can you count on?
Count on your fingers, count on your toes.
1
for the money, 2 for the show, 3 to get ready and four to go
Count
on the sun and the moon.
Count the stars forever.
Count on
forever to infinity.
The count has begun.
Always count on your
mother
But not for everything
Count on your father.
Who?
Art in heaven?
Know my father is not Art but he’s away.
Hallowed
be his name
His name cannot be said.
They cared, but we could never see eye to eye.
I am one, C 1 B 1
I
see none without a mirror.
C 1, B 1 (see one, be won)
C 1, B 1,

because we C I 2 I.
We 3 C I 2 I
I 2 I we 3
C all between us.
I 2 I we C all 3 yet, we each C 2.
I 2 I we C
each other.
3 C I 2 I, if none comes between them.
The 3 C all
yet each C 2 (C 2 all there is + 1)
See too all there is add
won
Count all there is and add 1
So even if you count none,
there’s 1
Knowing is greater than no one
yet it takes one to
know one.
If you don’t know one, you know none
If you know
one, you know there are two
If you see one, then know there’s
three.
If there’s none knowing one, there’s no one.
Y B 1?
U R Y
No one can know unless it sees one.
If you see one, you
see too.
O 1, 2 B 1, B 4, U O 2
Know one, to be one, before you

U O one to be won, before you know too
Knowing to be
won, before you know too.

You are why I see why. Before you I see no one, before knowing, I be one, I be won, I know no one, I know no one, I no none. I now I won, I begun. I won before I begun.
Want to see?
Want
to see, what to see, why to see?
Want to see eye to eye?
See to
understand.
See eye to eye and you see all there is to see.
If
you’ve seen all there is to see, what more is there?
There are
the details. Enjoy.
If you’ve seen all
there is to see and done all there is to do, then why are you still
here?
I am still here because I am waiting on you.
Don’t wait
on me unless you are going with me or I’m going with you.
Its
best we go together, for that is the way we started, and that’s the
way we end.
Two Be Shared
We started with
none, and ended with none
Yet are all won in the end.
We’ve
been one since the beginning.
And even though we’ve grown apart
still we shared a life
We shared a life through our sons and
daughters.
We shared a life with all that wanted.
We shared a
life that no one wanted.
We wanted it.
We got it.
Hope it’s what we wanted.
We want it to be
what we want it to be
We hope we are what we are
And we know
who we are
And why we are
Where we are, when we are
And no
matter who, what, why, where
And how we are.
That we’ll
always have each other
and that will always be.
Shakespear sends a
message.
What is he trying to say?
See what to see, be what to
be.
Beware the crocodiles in the Nile
Can’t be all there
is to be
Can’t be all there is
All that is, is all that will
be
It’s always been that way
And that way it will always
be
From now till then and first to last
Turned around and stand
on its head
It’s still the same to me
So share it with whom
you can
And save it for no one
It will be here where you left
it
So use it as you know how
And do not ever forget
The
sacrifices left
Have the same effect as prayer
If the heart be
true
And if the heart be true
There’s nothing it can’t
do
So go and close your eyes
And get a good night’s
sleep
Tomorrow is the day
That starts another week
I B 2 B, I C 2
C
URYIB, URYIC
B4IC, B4IB IB4U AND UB4 me
The lies can’t mask the truth forever.
Nothing
Pushed
apart
produced a spark.
You would not think
that such a
start
could light so vast
the infinite dark.
Light to
see
and light to grow.
Light encountered
starts to
slow,
bent,
confined,
ceases to scatter.
Becomes a
solid,
does it?
Matter!
You might have been able to give them what they wanted had they truly known what they wanted.
It’s not that I don’t want it or deserve it or think that I need it or really know that I need it.
What is it that is clouding my head so that I see clearly? I think I must be blind.
Am I seeing clearly? I am if we are seeing eye to eye.
We need touch to see in the darkness here. Hear to see.
Must we be blind to see eye to eye in the light?
When we trust others’ senses, we can reach a higher understanding
You cannot fake it forever. It shows in your eyes.
Pure intents inspire pure results.
Paying attention pays dividends and Can defuse tense situations.
Portents are
omens
You choose your meaning
choose right
choose wrong
the
truth reveals itself with enlightenment
Understand tents,
tenths, tense…
To tense can be stressful, take a break before
being broke
Kevin asked. “Can
I bring you something from the outside world?”
Does that imply
that I’m on the inside?
Can we live outside our minds?
Can we
live inside our heads?
We need both and more for the benefit of
all.
I before me except
after we
One before none except after some
I am not me, I am
I
