Shooting from the lap

Yo - this blog is from a special place - moi laptop! whoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Yes - my very own Toshiba Satellite. It is v.v. cool and I just love the idea of writing/coding/browsing sitting the way I am.

I guess there will be more frequent blogs. And more frequent communication with friends and family. And a more knowledge-able me.

Raise your glasses all,
Cheeeeeeeers.

A (new?) understanding

New Year everyone - not stating the fact. that is my greeting. May we all get the energy to see things anew - fresh, as each new moment is.

Something that was bothering me for some time now:

"For instance, if somebody is getting in touch with the sense of autonomy that comes with the experience of Being--the sense that one's existence is autonomous from one's mind, from one's thoughts--that sense of autonomy may be perceived by the ego as autonomy from other people," Almaas points out. "If a married person is feeling autonomy, they may start wondering if they want to stay married. Or if they have a job, they may wonder if they should leave that job and start their own business. When what they really need to see is that they're autonomous just by being who they are. That's where a teacher can be important. Because if a person doesn't realize that autonomy is an Essential aspect of being, they will interpret it in their accustomed ways."
