DEEP



Nanoose is a very deep person....working them "still waters" LOL

BTW I love your signature. My "Still Water" guy lives by the old Golden Rule.
It is a good rule for all ppl of this world. But unfortunately there are too many selfish greedy ppl in this world who only are concerned with self!

OK Nanoose here goes my contribution.

"Anytime someone carries a picket sign in front of the White House, that is The First Amendment in action."
Julian Bond

And he said

"I do think that some of us began to realize that this was going to be a long standing struggle that was going to go on for decades, and you'd have to knuckle down....a lot of people in our generation did that...They did not drop out and RUN AWAY..."

Same energy needs to go into free the weed movement that went into the Civil Rights movement.

And lots of ppl yesterday were carrying picket signs seeing The First Amendment in action AGAIN! In front of the White House.

Lets picket the White House stoners of AMERICA! LOL

Come on...you know you want to do it.

This is a quote from activist Ciaron O'Reilly - I *love* that guy

"I believe every movement is confronted by the three temptations Jesus struggled with in the desert – power, wealth, status. Whether the dissident movement be Punk, Irish Republican, Feminist, Christian…you’ll find folks being seduced by these temptations and selling out. But there are radicals (Latin for “returning to the roots”) in every tradition. So yes in practice I find myself with more in common with radical punks, Buddhists, agnostics etc than with many “Christians.” But just because Johnny Rotten is now selling real estate in Malibu shouldn’t mean people should give up being punks!"

Nice thread Nanoose

Now I like that. Not enough ppl are truly alive while they are living. It is good to be ALIVE and have zest for life and truly live to ones maximum potential of aliveness.
Come ALIVE ppl who have died before they are dead. The world needs ppl who have come alive. WOOT!

Well that’s not what the wife tells me. The quote above and my signature both come from the same music group – Mark Geronamo and the Sluggers – OR – Mark Germano and the Sluggers - pretty cool stuff but you can’t dance to it.

You have to be deep to understand those phrases. But I am sure wifey is aware you are deep and prolly "still waters"
She lives with you and you can't live with a guy who is not somewhat deep if you are a rational and thinking woman.
Dumb guys suck!!! and are boring.
Brains and character and integrity over superficial good looks is a turn on to women...especially us older women who know WTF counts.
That is what is great about my man...he is deep,open minded,educated and enlightened. I will google those guys and find their music. You Canucks prolly listen to a lot of our music up there.

Here is some good inspirational quotes from Thich Nhat Hanh an author and Vietnamese peace activist as well as a wise monk.


"When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers within himself and his suffering is spilling over. He does not need punishment, but needs help. THAT is the message he is sending."


"Life is filled with suffering, but it is also filled with many wonders, like the blue sky, the sunshine, the eyes of a baby. To suffer is not enough. We must also be in touch with the wonders of life, they are within us all and around us, everywhere, anytime."


"My actions are my only belonging."

And my favorite quote of his is

"When we walk like we are running we print anxiety and sorrow on earth. We have to walk in a way that we only print peace and serenity on the earth. Be aware of the contact between the feet and the earth, walk as if you are kissing the earth with your feet."


But anyway my deep "still waters" man introduced me to this guys deep writing to contemplate.


OK enough seriousness. I must get out today and feel the world out there and the vibes on the streets.....LOL

Bad news don’t ruin my appetite don’t let the papers tell me what’s wrong
or right. I speak up when I know its right – I jump up when I know it’s time to
fight – until then I just take it day by day. by Doug and the Slugs. (Day by day).

Cheers!

"We have assumed the name of peacemakers, but we have been, by and large, unwilling to pay any significant price. And because we want the peace with half a heart and half a life and will, the war, of course, continues, because the waging of war, by its nature, is total—but the waging of peace, by our own cowardice, is partial. So a whole will and a whole heart and a whole national life bent toward war prevail over the mere desire for peace…."
