Haiku

The wisdom of trees
Is the shadow of the sun
As yin is to yang

We can not change the future because we do not know what it is, we have no control of it. all we can do is be in moment and see what is in the next moment to know what to do in that moment. "The best plans of Mice and men go wrong." Things change for the better when we take care of the moment, because that is what we can see. to look at a situation that has happened already. We only learn not to repeat what was bad of the moment that passed. to repeat the same thing again and hope for a different out come with out thinking of the pass experience, is what is called insanity.

A good write,
though we live in a never, never, land that is no where,
to even live in the now,
you have already made it the past.
So it leaves us with a quandary do we even exist at all, then we write or leave a record of our passing through this moment.
Where is that line twix now and then or a maybe that may not even be there.
This could go on for ever leaving a foot print of doubt.
In one million of Earth years will you be known at all will it be that our physical being was just a split in time, where we resided.
Now take the energy of the Spirit world it always will be, my friends say they can exist in any time we have, and in several of those at the same moment, we are then a spirit that is pure energy flowing at our own think, you are because you always have been, there is no change to you, just that we reside in a body for a while, which in fact is a split in nothing, in the overall theme of things.
Even the God child said "I am what I am" when asked by his followers I shall leave it at that until I am asked to believe in other things .
You take care of yours and you,
Yours as always Ian.T and the Children

I think you forgot that I do not believe any of that, I am here now in this consciences, then I am gone and in a short time in cosmic time all that I was will not exist. So I will continue to live right now, it is all I really know and I love. Good or bad I except who I am. Love, live, and die...
Thanks for the "good write"

I was under the impression that you were of the Taoist leanings.
The pathway that leads to eternity and many other philosophies, pu the traditional Chinese pinyin:
I love the "un carved block", which represents the "original nature... prior to the imprint of culture" of an individual
It is usually referred to as a state one returns to.
This would indicate much the same as the children taught me where we all return to our natural state after learning of things here.
Would love to talk about it to one of the teachers, when I speak to the children again I shall ask of the ways to perfection.
Go well young traveller and keep safe, your path is true,
Yours Ian.T

Thank you for your reply, let me then see the footprint of your mind in this now, and many more,
Yours Ian.T

What I leave as a foot print evaporates just as my time here does, so catch what ever you may of me, because by next week this conversation will also have evaporated.
thanks as always,
Eddie
