In response to "The Prompt"

Absolutely! I agree with you. After a certain time in our lives, circumstances permitting, we can create ourselves. The problem, if there's a problem, lies with our paying far too much attention to what others may say. As you pointed out, mostly, external creation leads to self-creation.

In response to "The wasteland"

Awesome response. The poem Wasteland poem was also written shortly after the ending of World War I and there were many areas that looked like wasteland so it's an effective reminder of what man is capable of doing. Also in earlier times when battles were more dependent on good weather typically April the troops would stir after their winter encampments and begin fighting again. Another sad reminder of man's creating wasteland and burials of the dead.

In response to "Failure is the best teacher"

Nice entry and I agree. Failure is a teacher but not always, and it is not for everyone.

In response to "THE STORY OF “PIPAL TREE” ON SUKHNA LAKE"

In Japan I saw very old trees. In the USA trees are not always valued for their "inner spirit" nor the joy they give others. One tree I saw in Takayama was 800+ years old. Americans cannot fathom that.

In response to "Tramp"

Well done!

Not only do you summarize one of Chaplin's movies - City Lights (and I do believe the flower girl was blind) - but you manage to weave in Chaplin's life story and why 'The Tramp' was created in the first place.

He came from nothing and became such an icon, all while showing the world that you did not have to lose your humanity in the process.

Thanks for joining me in celebrating Charlie Chaplin's 136th birthday with your tribute!

In response to "My Beleif"

Yes, I agree. Fascist/autocratic/theocratic states in Russia and the USA will force Europe and Canada into a partnership that may benefit the world. May they be the light going forward.

LIVE LIFE TO THE FULL

What advice would you give to someone who has not experienced this radical shift?

Live life to the full. Live each moment as it arises, each desire, each impulse as it arises. Not what you think you should do, but simply what arises, what is there in the moment, now.

Do you have a goal in life? Does life have any meaning for you?

A goal? No. Meaning? None, other than to experience the powerful intensity of every moment.

Don’t you feel rather alone?

No, never. I am always experiencing something. I am never alone in this space.

And I guess you are never anxious.

Even the anxiety is in the background.

Do you feel empathy towards other people? Those around you?

Yes, I feel connected, for all this ‘I am’, all this manifestation is within me. Others don’t exist as ‘other’ but everything is part of this ‘I am’ that appears and disappears from one moment to the next within this thing.
