Dear Mr Z

Dear Mr. Z.

You use your beak and shuffle your feet.

Always here yet never present.

Intuition, it seems not to be.

Shaky or eccentricity.

What’s your philosophy?

Issues you seem to be!

These random sentences were going through my unconscious mind, so decided to make it a poem and write it down.

Happy New Year 2017-2018

Buddha Quotes for the new year of 2017-2018:

  • Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
  • Health is the greatest gift, contentment the greatest wealth, faithfulness the best relationship.
  • What we think, we become.
  • No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.
  • We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.
  • Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.
  • Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
  • He who loves 50 people has 50 woes; he who loves no one has no woes.
  • Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.
  • We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world.
  • With fools, there is no companionship. Rather than to live with men who are selfish, vain, quarrelsome, and obstinate, let a man walk alone.
  • To live a pure unselfish life, one must count nothing as one’s own in the midst of abundance.
  • I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.
