This is okay for me now.

I snagged my wire standing up and snapped the earbud clean off.

Funny, one of my earphones stopped working last night.

Silence is Golden.

How annoying is it that the Irish still exist? On a scale of 1-10.

Don’t be shy!

They're coming for you, Zeno.

IÂ’m literally back from my vacay. Usual place..

Anytime anyone wanted to know more. I politely not recommended to visit there. Dump.

When I'm not working. On holidays. When I no longer want to use my brain, basically. It naturally leads to hedonism of a sort. When I do fulfill all those desires. I am left empty. The three gateways to hell from the Gita or Buddhic four noble truths come to mind.

You weigh up your options. You need a break from work. Hedonism is not the answer. So now what?

I people watch. What are they doing?

Ignoring the ones who are working. They are generally mostly again, attempting to fulfil their desires. By the most subtle means.

Food. Non-alcoholic beverages. Window shopping. Material goodies.

A slippery slope that leads to more sinful endeavors.

The Devil makes work for idle hands. Protestant work ethic. Dharma

You may also have considered activities that could be defined as both work and play. Recreational activities that are physical. That just so happen to be good for you. Put you in shape.

Who is employed and can do this these days. No one really, I know can find this time.

It’s tricky.

If there are no higher meanings to existence than the ones we create ourselves then we are the creators of the ultimate meanings to existence. The Universe is not watching us. We are watching the Universe.

Our willingness to come into being and hold onto deeper truths which bear a cost gives the Creator, as lead author, the confidence to re-write our story as great heroes. This then allows us to come into being, which gives the Creator more confidence -> feedback loop.

Gibberish

Existence is a sea of profundity in which we swim. There is profound meaning everywhere we look and in everything we feel and do.

I take existence personally.

Existence is a non-denominational reality. No reason to take it personally.

I am the eternal Buddha. And I have the bank account to prove it.

The current Dali Llama will be the last.

The problem is just other people.

Where we're at is where it's at.

The human condition:

Everyone eventually becomes demoralized.

It takes a heroic effort to overcome demoralization.

A demoralized person is unlikely to identify with the hero.

The spirit of the hero only engages the demoralized person.

Everything is in perpetual motion. What are they talking about?
