Sometimes I sit and stare off into space; I don’t do it very often because like most people it is hard to stop, do nothing, and just be.

I have always been a believer in Zen and the Tao, that philosophy of being one and living in the now. But the world we live in doesn’t train us to just be, we must do, running here and there, playing working, living, earning. We have even started to lose the ability to dream.

When I listen to people talk, it’s about TV, jokes about popular shows, words and phrases those of characters. Absorbing others personality traits that came from some fictional character to begin with.

Where are the people that are real? Where are those who know how to sit and be? And why, when you do find then, are they considered boring because we don’t know how to relate outside the media.

The sky is blue, but a thunderstorm is circling around waiting for the moment to show itself.  I know it is there even though I can’t see it.  You can feel the buzz in the air, touching your skin in an electrical caress, making your senses heightened, a slight headache as you try to absorb more than what can be noted with your normal senses.

Can you hear the thunder?  The gods talking about things that humans cannot possibly understand.  Have you ever wondered what they must think of what us creatures are doing to the world or is it like a human who has cancer, never realizing what is going on till it may be too late so all they can do is cut it out till it is no longer?

What can one do? Go home, love your children, try not to bicker, eat well, walk in the rain, feel the sun on your face and laugh loud and often, as much as possible, and especially at yourself. Because the only antidote to death is not poetry, or drama, or miracle drugs, or a roomful of technical expertise and good intentions. The antidote to death is life.

-Theresa Brown, from her article “Perhaps Death Is Proud; More Reason to Savor Life” in the New York Times, September 9th, 2008.

“Try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations.”

And now, some gratuitous pictures of penises to annoy the censors”.

- Monty Python, The Meaning of Life

This morning, while I was curled in bed reading with my kitten Ober curled in my arms, I looked out my French Doors out over my pond and a hummingbird was flying in front of the window wishing me a good morning.

It made me smile, how much more perfect can life be?
