Assorted quotes for the young man!

"Stop thinking what you say will make a difference in people's lives when you cannot back it up with action. A humble silence would be most appropriate."

"If you begin to think your life has been particularly instructive and somehow everybody missed out, think again."

"If you cannot afford to truly love someone, it is better not to. Not that you cannot take the pain, you probably are going to screw up somebody else's life and everybody doesn't have a brain like a sieve."

"If you wonder how you can be committed to a woman when you are committed to not a single thing - work, ideals or family - you are on the right track!"

"If you are feeling particularly strong, emotionally, it is probably because of somebody else. Don't forget that it is a gift and go around dancing like a peacock with a wig."

"If you are feeling particularly critical of someone remember that person has chosen to expose their most vulnerable portion to you. It is not your place to judge or mask your own darkness by criticizing another. If you cannot take it, get the balls to make a difference or just put up with it!"

you walk up to the lake before sunset,
the cold wind numbs you,
you wait rubbing you hands together,
daylight breaks through,
the bar headed geese take off from the water,
a hundred or so of them,
you look up to the sky as they cover the sky over head,
mesmerized,
with no warning,
all of them decide to lighten their bowels!

i think the underlying idea is fear and not of sincerity. The author is masking fear - of rejection, loss and loneliness - with a veil of logic. It is a fixation on permanence rather than being open to experience. This, i believe, will ultimately spill into every other aspect of life. Hence the quote,

"it is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all."

it is a mark of maturity to realize a person's thought, speech and action are seldom congruent. While there are many reasons why this is so, you must realize that it takes great integrity to be true to all the three. what i write applies to me as to anyone who reads what i write. Until then, words will be just words.

more on that later, i am off to listen to the waves lapping on the shore :-)
