I’m in a lousy mood today. I think it’s last night’s Obama/Romney debate that set me off, that ugliness in human nature, everything an evasion or attack, and how it goes so much deeper than that. It really isn’t just those guys. As Voltaire said: “Men use thought only as authority for their injustice, and employ speech only to conceal their thoughts.” It’s so ugly! Stupid me. No writing today, that’s for sure. Ugh and damn.

That sadly is so true; most people do not say what they mean and do not do what they say. Yet, the wise ones fashion speech with their thought, sifting it as grain is sifted through a sieve (Buddha). We can at least all aspire to that.
Okay, Buddha wins. (Again.)
