this month's mantra

courtesy of the wonderful Krystal Lord Squishums:

"detach from the outcome
gain the moment
the moment is infinite
so
let go and live forever"

this is the perfect shot : forget it all and do without doing, because the end is just a justification for the means, but the act of doing is the real purpose, the life and the meaning of any end : an end can't go on, but the making is dynamical: the making alone can change, can better, can move and fly freely because it has no constraints - a specific outcome is nothing but a constraint, a limit on what the making can become, of what can be done - a vial timidity in the vastness of possibility - a sin against the self - a denial of the oneness of the universe...

so, let it all go : expectations, outcomes, ends
do without doing, and look around each moment in the doing: see and learn and admire the beauty of it, and the completion of tasks will come to you, when there are other things to be done, and more beauty to be enjoyed.

punx-a-yummy

McGlame!!!: who in row 3 is haaatin' life?

Jer kills herself

McGlame!!!: nah, we need you to live!

Jer: i'm not alive as it is... this is just some kind of hateful, torturous half-life

Jer looks at weather.com....
Jer squints, and plans on eating groundhog for dinner tomorrow night

McGlame!!!: lol

Jer: we will satisfy ourselves by eating them all

Jer: and .... wait... i have cheese at home

McGlame!!!: and breathe out

Jer: breathing will do nothing

McGlame!!!: in with the good
out with the bad

Jer: yeah, and what building are we in?
every breath is poison

McGlame!!!: well, temporarily suspend your disbelief...
and believe that there is something other than hate in the air
