Wasting the Dawn
Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance
Others, mean and rueful of the Western dream
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft
We have constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping
This is the land where the Pharaoh died ,,,
No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn

Windows
Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world.
-- George Bernard Shaw
Intent
"Underneath the dry leaves is the ground; the enormous earth. Intent is the principle underneath everything."

The idea of self
“… what we think is our personal self is, in actuality, only an idea … the bulk of our energy is consumed in defending that idea.
