The ego is a zoo. Feelings are the monkeys. They are alternately endearing, cute or funny, and sometimes they throw a handful of shit at you. But it's the zoo. I can go or stay. It's a little bit stupid to yell at a monkey, or get overly concerned with them. They are only monkeys, after all. Don't take them too seriously. The zoo can be enticing, but would you really want to live there?~~Baba Rhum Rhaizin~~

"You can be kind, even when fondness is out of the question."~~Baba Rhum Rhaizin~~

Discernment can look like intolerance, especially if you discern something that someone else likes, is not good for you. Well, tough shit for the other guy then.~~Baba Rhum Rhaizin~~

"I cleanse myself of all 
selfishness, resentment, critical feelings for my fellow beings, 
self-condemnation, and 
misinterpretation of my life experiences"

"Once you take care of the needs of a society they will then concentrate on their wants. Providing their wants is the gateway to real power."~~Baba Rhum Rhaizin~~

From Jeannine Gendar: There's a vulture cartoon with a punch line that goes, "Mom, does anything die and become dessert?"

"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting....Holy Cow! What a Ride!"
Hunter S. Thompson

The foundation of all mental illness, is the unwillingness to experience legitimate suffering.
