Though only your skin, sinews, and bones remain, though your blood and flesh dry up and wither away, yet shall you meditate and not stir until you have attained full Enlightenment. But, first, a little nosh.... Enter into your inner self and behold the eye of the soul. Gaze upon your original face before you were even born. Shocked? Remember, this was before the nose job. The Torah says, "Love thy neighbor as thyself." The Buddha says there is no "self." So, maybe you are off the hook. If there is no self, whose arthritis is this? The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single "Oy." Accept misfortune as a blessing. Do not wish for perfect health or a life without problems. What would you talk about? Do not let children play contact sports like football. These only lead to injuries and instill a violent, warlike nature. Encourage your child to play peaceful games, like "sports doctor." Let go of pride, ego, and opinions. Admit your errors and forgive those of others. Relinquishment will lead to calm and healing in your relationships. If that doesn't work, try small-claims court. There is no escaping karma. In a previous life, you never called, you never wrote, you never visited. And whose fault was that? Be here now. Be someplace else later. Is that so complicated? Wherever you go, there you are. Your luggage is another story. |
