Crazy man in the house of madness

What to say ? Ramblings of a confused, frustrated man

Hi there everyone, watching March Madness, and remember that phrase: Crazy man in the house of madness, but unsure of its context. Long term memory seems Ok for certain experiences, but it doesn't want to be a very good or sortable data base. I try and control those memories that come flooding in when I try to empty my mind for deep thinking or an empty mind for mediation. I have discovered a great website to help me/everyone to breath together.

Political Solutions

I received a mailing from Democratic National Committee- John McCain's Double Talk Express. The Then/Now comparison--A supporter of Bush's war in Iraq from the beginning, John McCain said winning the conflict would be easy". NOW- John Boy says he's willing to keep our troops trapped in Iraq's civil war for 100 years or more. We as clear thinking Americans can't let this so-called military hero continue to led us down this mistaken path.

March Madness

Hello out there, someone must be listening??

I will keep trying to make a connection. Maybe my ramblings are too confused and without clear purpose.
Today is the 3rd day of March Madness, hoping that the Jayhawks can make it to Sweet 16. Keep hoping that they will play at a championship level during the NCAA tournament. At least Duke was defeated, and no K-State with Michael B.

Hello, out there!

I feel like the character in anti-box ,Home Depot commercial--lost in the internet with no chance of escaping. Oh well, maybe my efforts will finally pay off.

Meditation

Learn to Sit Still

The practice of Mediation is related to controling our thoughts. One type of thoughts ust pop up unannounced and uninvited into our brains for no discernable reason. These are result of previos thoughts and experiences that have left traces inour brain's neural pathways. To practice thinking not thinking, all you need to do is ignore those kind of thoughts and learn how not to instigate the other kind of thoughts. This is easier said than done, of course. But get intothe habit and it begins to come naturally.

Reality is what itis, beyond all concepts of success and failure. This passage was lifted in parts from article by Brad Warner.
