Another mindless copy and paste. AJ has taught tubby well.

No, it's not a mindless C&P.
I extracted and compressed material that I thought to be more relevant.

What do you want me to do? Summarize it in my own words, so that with my less than ideal english skills people will struggle to understand what I was trying yo say?

Come on. Puns aside, isn't it a fascinating article?
One of my former bosses introduced me to the concept. He related to me a lot of funny experiences that he had - when he travelling with a group of germans (of all people!) to a Latin American country.

Ha! If we lived closer, I definitely would.

I was going to go back to the house again today but I'm tired. I'll unload my car today and head back to the house tomorrow.


Getting old sucks.

Anyway.

It looks more and more like Emerson crrated this thread with the intent of steering it towards a familiar path.

Strange, many others were able to able to pick up on the theme of the thread without any trouble.

It was you, bashing into the thread in typical hashtag fashion, with histrionic handguns blazing that steered this thread towards the typical all-about-attention-for-hashtag nonsense.

It was you who decided to post in the thread. You are the one with the uncontrollable compulsion to jump into every thread I start, even digging up the bones of my old threads to needlessly post about anal, and for attention.

You.

Your decision.

It is these type of decisions that you make here everyday, more than your copy & paste blurbs about time, that speak to your intellectual abilities and self-proclaimed high IQ.

Ironically, this thread is more about the decisions -big and small - folks make everyday, and how these decisions impact their lives.

And I expect more of the likes of SaintPeter to start posting in it, so it's time to call it in.

Another one of your common declarations, and a decision you make, likely subject to change.

Summarizing in your own words? Nah, that's for intelligent people, just keep on c&p'ing a la AJ et al.

Emerson, why are you not cleaning the house and the toilet? Wait a minute. Do you have an outhouse

Wonderful, thoughtful questions that hashtag could have asked my wife, had he accepted the offered SKYPE video call.

Another opportunity squandered.

1.My yoga teacher reminds me yoga can be incorporated in to life; mindful awareness of our physical and spiritual passage through each day. So how we climb the stairs the moments we use while the kettle boils.

As a sensualist I feel similarly. It's not just what I do, life need not be FULL if the emptiness is appreciated in itself.
- Food need not be the gourmet, if a simple, good dish is wanted.
But the decisions we make in what we incorporate in our worlds does matter; what we wear, eat, what we surround our senses with , where our thoughts rest.
- I know these impact on me anyway. When I make the moments count and choices that are enriching in the emptiness and the fullness, that are in accord with how I think and feel, my outlook is more how I would have it be.

2.Sometimes these choices are to be passive; to fail to respond or to close my senses to some influences or sensations. I feel torn over this as I would like to feel iron clad that I can experience all with no taint of its odour clinging to me, but I'd rather admit it's better to close to it sometimes and give my thought to where it is better used for my benefit. Sometimes they are small but active. I have recently tried incorporating a Benedictine approach to door opening and closing. It's a bit frustrating when one is the pied piper to a quartet of four footed house pets who move at different paces, but in encourages thought.

1.Interesting… .I noticed that about you, but I never stopped to think whether there was a philosophical approach to life behind it.

I noticed that in this forum different people prefer to use different senses as their main way of perceiving the outer world.
Some (male posters in particularh prefer a more intellectualised and/or concrete approach, others (like you, as you say) enjoy the sensations or sensualist/ mindfullness approach. Others (like myself) judge the external reality by how it makes them feel.


2.The Benedictine approach?

Thanks Elle.

Not all strength is derived from resistance, or by being assertive. Sometimes you are at your strongest when you are acquiescent, your most formidable when you are fluid in your approach, and move with balance, purpose, and grace. As ol' Kenny Rogers sang, "You've got to know when to hold 'em; Know when to fold 'em; Know when to walk away; And know when to run".

Being mindful of the opening and closing doors that way not only broadens our experiences, but helps us better understand them and ourselves through purpose and context, and serves to remind us what is truly important in life.

Have a fine, fine day!

No worries, no apology needed.

Your post reveals more about you, than anything you've posted or pasted in this thread up till now.
