Thursday, February 6, 2003 by UBoB | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I'll start this off again....
"You may be only one person in the entire world, but if you're really lucky you might be the entire world to one person."
.....now, follow this example, and please keep it nice.

When your clothes are very wrinkled it is nice to have a sense of ironing. 
Hi goodmorphing! I'm back temporarily. My wife's only nephew is being Bar Mitzvah'ed and there was no way her sister was letting us get away with not coming.
So we're back in town for a short time.
Staying at the old house, which my sister now lives in and looks after until I get over this wanderlust I've been experiencing.
The experience so far has been great. Despite all the dire warnings from family members we have found it relatively easy. We live and work on a kibbutz in the northern part of the country near the Sea of Galilee. [Known as Yam(Lake)Kinneret to the Israelis].It is a beautiful area, filled with so much history I cannot even begin to tell all.
Often, when I am out walking, I am struck with the profound notion of just who it was, only a couple of millenium ago, that walked these same ancient paths and walkways. It can be humbling.
I could go on, but this thread is not the place for a 100 page story of my adventures.
In keeping with the thread I'll finish with this little quote:
Socrates and Jesus, two teachers of virtue and love, were executed because of the unsettling, threatening power of their souls, which was revealed in their personal lives and in their words. They did not carry guns, yet still they were a threat, because there is nothing more powerful than the revelation of one's own soul.
--Thomas Moore

Heading back out for Tel Aviv in the morning. Was nice talking with and 'reading' you all again. Take care. See you someday.
I leave you with this:
Only lunatics can have a permanent ego.
-- P. D. Ouspensky, The Psychology of Man's Possible Evolution
Hope everyone's ego goes through a few changes in their lifetimes.

I have learnt silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers.

One for the skinners :
If you happen to be one of the fretful minority who can do creative work, never force an idea; you'll abort it if you do. Be patient and you'll give birth to it when the time is ripe. Learn to wait.
