the moment we attempt to communicate about love we fail to express what love is.
love is never spoken. love is not to be understood. love is not a choice. love is a gift to celebrate. yes, love is a mystery.

Entertainment
you can choose to experience many things. i choose to experience the same thing many ways.
moderation in all things is boring.
"It's video, Dude. Now that we're competing with the amateurs, we can't afford to invest that little extra in story, production value, feeling." - Jackie Treehorn

Neglected
Bernard Jaffe: "When you get the blanket thing you can relax because everything you could ever want or be you already have and are."
i gave up trying to be what others expect.
no lebowski quote this time. :(

Voyeurism
stuck being afraid of loss, not willing to accept unknown incalculable benefits. When is it time to stop looking, and instead gratiously receive?
everyone should experience your delightfulness.

Hunting
speed, strength, cleverness, all attributes of a friendly yellow lab, Kodiak. and he likes to chase squirrels. saw him corner and catch one, and he let the squirrel go so he could try to catch him again.
the hunt is more exciting then the catch.

Change
letting go is not hard. change is not hard. holding on is hard. not changing is hard. why are you waiting? you should do it. are you afraid to fail? don't we all consider it? change?
considering the absurd is a delicate balance between brilliance and foolishness.

Freedom
i am a thing. i am an extension of the greatest thing, god. i know my spirit. i share my spirit. i may cease to be. yet, spirit is limitless.
I say, "I will give you water,
If you will share your wine,
And I will feed your heart,
If you promise to feed mine."
And so we will dance together...

Contemplation
god is a thing, spirit does not exist.
why can't time always have been? we don't know. time without begining.
"Look, I've got certain information, certain things have come to light, and uh, has it ever occurred to you, man, that given the nature of all this new shit, that, uh, instead of running around blaming me, that this whole thing might just be, not, you know, not just such a simple..." - Dude

Eternity
at best, eternity is the absence of time? if time ceases (yet, I have no reason to disprove time always is?), so to would eternity cease. the absence of something absent sounds absurd? eternity is not all of time, nor more than time, rather, just time without time, but only in time?
(Interesting observation: they won't let you die till all your money is spent.)
And let's also not forget, let's not forget, Dude, that keeping wildlife, an amphibious rodent, for uh, domestic, you know, within the city, that isn't legal either. - Walter Sobchak

Pantheist
Thinking is a Disease.
maybe we exist in a multiverse and we're too stupid to perceive chaos? but dammit, i believe the chair upon which i sit exists, i am aware of the chair, and i am aware of the chair, as the chair exists, separate of my awareness of the chair! amen.

Plagurism
I did not write this. i am not claiming i wrote this. i do not know who wrote this? i do know, the author was not me:
TEACHER: To be is to be percieved. There is no matter, there are only minds and the ideas in those minds.
STUDENT: Of course there are material objects. What about this great vintage top I'm wearing? I can feel it and see it . . .
TEACHER: All you know of that fabulous top are your perceptions of it. Your perceptions aren't material objects, they're ideas--you could never know them if they were anything else.
STUDENT: Perceptions aren't physical objects, but that doesn't stop them from having systematic connections to material objects, nor does it prove that those objects don't exist. How can you explain the intersubjective consistency of perceptions? An independent real world is the most economic and intuitively attractive model to explain what we do know. Where do you think minds inhere, if not in human beings, which are physical objects?
TEACHER: Everything we know is in our minds. You can provide no proof that there are material objects, because that proof would be in your mind and would be made up of ideas. You cannot use ideas to reason to things that are not ideas.

Tolerance
Secular people tolerate. And, toleration is the greatest threat to my existence. I will tolerate something that may destroy me. The best defense is a strong offense, and i'm failing miserably.
what should you do if someone pee's on your rug?
