Replayed wall posts

You practice forgiveness for two reasons: to let others know that you no longer wish to be in a state of hostility with them and to free yourself from the self-defeating energy of resentment. Send love in some form to those you feel have wronged you and notice how much better you feel.”

Impermanence and freedom are the essential components for an exciting and blissful life.
I will pass away sooner than most people who read this, but that doesn't shake my sense of wonder and joy at this world I live. I am grateful for the gifts of intelligence, love, friendship, fun, family, adventure and laughter. I do not fear death but I am afraid of people’s ignorance and stupidity. Blog posts recreated.
As a fragile hatchling precariously placed on an edge, you need to get to safety. The way down would be the best, so you have to hop from ledge to ledge and slide down walls to safe ground, and hopefully to find out where you came from. Just be careful and don’t take too much damage or you’ll be nothing more than a broken shell.
I respect kindness in human beings first of all, and kindness to animals. I don't respect the law; I have a total irreverence for anything connected with society except that which makes the roads safer, the beer and alcohol stronger, the food cheaper and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer.
I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination. Unknown
. Prayer.
An unpleasurable state of mind, combining an intense need for activity with a lack of purpose; In prayer, excitation is experienced but its aim has been forgotten. The environment may be shunned in an effort to relieve the excitation through fantasy. More likely, however, the religious environment is sought in the hope that relief will come through some chance encounter with a purpose similar to the one forgotten. Religious persons pass from situation to situation like someone who has misplaced a valuable possession and inquires incessantly for its whereabouts, but the discovery of purpose has the disadvantage of responsibility. Hence, the religious environment is enlisted for gratification-unknown aims cannot be gratified-but for continued diversion and distraction of the realities of life; one can close ones eyes and pray. -Unmuzzled –Vinay-
I have shed many avatars, student/lover/ writer/pseudo-philosopher/husband/ father, discarding one body after another as all of them were misfits for me in my life.
I am amongst the last generation of sensitive, distinguished Aristocrats for whom, culture and chivalry are not words one searches in 'Webster', but something one practices in everyday life because of the deep humility ingrained inside!- The last of the Kappana's-

The secret to a rich and extraordinary life is to have more experiences than money!
The secret to a rich and extraordinary life is to have more experiences than money! he past now exists only in memories; the present reality is too grim to survive. I attempt to throw off the pain accumulated over the years, the virus of our disillusionment. Recalling memories make us somber, shedding silent tears; sharing the pain & pleasure of the past glory. My mind is crowded with the ghosts of yesteryear and my ears echo with the sound of voices of the people long lost in time.
My dreams burst into flames of passion, why did we keep our love trapped in our hearts, like a prisoner without expressing our love which was confined to a solitary cell. Now when my hair has turned grey, my memories turn to ashes and I impose upon myself a wanton amnesia!-Vinay-
Though shunned by the learned and middle class, the politicians woo the gullible public ignominiously for their vote banks and when elected however unsuited for their tasks they are ready and eager to assume responsibility for affairs of the state and world...Vinay-
The tree of life cannot be nourished by your watering it with tears of self pity, but it must be kept alive, by the knowledge that freedom is real and everlasting. Plexus.
There is more truth and beauty in life and in nature than in all the holy books
Everyone occasionally feels dissatisfied with reality, but some people are born with a vicious criminal streak to break free from it.
If I were to start confessing to all my sins, then I will be kneeling in confession till the end of my life!
Church/Synagogue/Mosque
An assemblage of believers, for the purpose of hearing the readings of holy book and the expounding of the law. God’s deliberate flatness in his scrolls, with touches of megalomania and prayer.
Here is my final statement, about drugs, about alcohol, about pornography and smoking and everything else. What business is it of yours what I do, read, buy, see, say, think, who I take to bed, what I take into my body - as long as I do not harm another human being on this planet? Always know your rights!
