http://itsokei.blogspot.com/2014/12/green-shoots.html
And wither then, I cannot say. Thursday, 25 December 2014. Last night I dreamt of many things,. Of snowy mounds and elven rings,. Of caterpillars smoking weed. And armoured dragons drinking mead,. But never did I dream of you,. Nor shooting stars, nor wishes true,. For these are real if we can see. Around us in reality. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Morning Poem (Mary Oliver). Three Theories of Everything (Ellis Potter). View my complete profile. Moved to Blogspot: 27th October, 2012.

And wither then, I cannot say. Wednesday, 25 December 2013. Like Water, Like Light — A Contemplation on Freedom. I'd like to share a lovely thought I had this Christmas morning. Merry Christmas all! Is it possible to "be like water" and so regain our freedom? When the intention is observed, light behaves like a particle and the interference resolves itself one way or the other. If light is a symbol of absolute freedom, then what can we learn from it? A friend of mine posted today "a free spirit is someon...

And wither then, I cannot say. Thursday, 27 February 2014. Her (Spike Jonze; USA, 2013). 9733;★★★. Set in internally spacious high-rise L.A. in a not-too-distant future, Theodore is a man absorbed in his past. But the past has become disorganized and disrupted from a present which lacks meaning. The present is just a shadow-land of former feelings and he fears it will always be this way: “sometimes I think I’ve felt everything I’m ever going to feel…”. There are seven different types of love in “He...

And wither then, I cannot say. Thursday, 25 December 2014. There was a young girl of Penang. Who started a fashion shebang. She stayed up all night with her elves. And let them make clothes for themselves,. Then she cooked for them chocolate meringue. Having eaten up all the meringue,. In the moonlight, they danced and they sang,. But as dawn started breaking,. The earth began shaking. All their clothes and they ran! Unperturbed, the young girl sipped ginseng,. It was just a delivery van. It takes almost...

And wither then, I cannot say. Monday, 30 June 2014. Islamic Law and The Modern State (Wael Hallaq). 9733;★★★. An Islamic State is a contradiction in terms. It was part of the solution to a problem that it had itself created in its extreme form in the Nazi state. How else to protect a people from the oppression of other states, but to create a state oneself? Photo: “Man praying in Morocco”. 8212; Umbreen Hafeez. 8221; tells how Islamic law was never as harsh in its punishments as it stipulated in theory,...

And wither then, I cannot say. Saturday, 10 May 2014. Rupa and The April Fishes. Born to Indian parents in California, raised in the US, India and southern France, and leading a double life as musician and doctor, singer/guitarist/composer Rupa Marya and her “polyglot band of musical renegades” concoct an enchanting mix of French nouvelle vague, rousing Latin grooves, Gypsy swing, and dreamy Indian ragas. And to top it all, I just love their intelligent lyrics. Guy in the Background:. I did not say a word.

And wither then, I cannot say. Monday, 31 March 2014. Emma Stevens (Enchanted Live). Earlier this week, I was privileged to see Emma Stevens. Fairytale look.) Other highlights included the popping “Riptide”, the chilled-out loving “Lazy” and the upbeat post-holiday “Hey Summer”. Overall her music captures that post-holiday mood of memory of good times in the past, moving through sad moments, upbeat and hopeful, open to love and light in the present and future. 8236;’s advice.

it's okei!: Scrabble Games
http://itsokei.blogspot.com/2014/12/scrabble-games.html
And wither then, I cannot say. Thursday, 25 December 2014. It all started off when I played NUDE. And left you the chance of a triple. I never meant to be so crude. My finger slipped across the button. And consented to the move too soon. I’m glad you weren’t in ravenous mood. Or perhaps you couldn’t reach my NUDE. To get a leg-up on my letter. So played HANG against it, nothing better. Still, this stopped me playing on. What in good faith could I do,. Go C and E and CHANGE. Or play elsewhere a turn or two.

it's okei!: Three Theories of Everything (Ellis Potter)
http://itsokei.blogspot.com/2014/12/three-theories-of-everything-ellis.html
And wither then, I cannot say. Tuesday, 23 December 2014. Three Theories of Everything (Ellis Potter). The following are notes on a talk by an ex-Buddhist monk Ellis Potter who then converted to Christianity. I fear I might have fallen short in representing his views to which perhaps the only remedy is reading his book (see the link below). Following the talk, there was a response from a Buddhist perspective by Rachel Harris and then a Q and A. More about Ellis Potter's book on which his talk was based:.
