Realness

He believed with all
his heart that everyth-
ing he saw was real
except a mirage, a pre-
sidental promise & a
Nigerian email.

(My apologies to all the
millions of Nigerians who
send legit emails.)

Misreflection

He spent
a long
time @
the
mirror

He couldn't tell u the
time of day but he co-
uld walk thru walls.

Today was the last
time I needed to go
2 the dentist. I
decided not to take

I could get more w-
ork done in the pm.

Breaking Bread w/Bread

Yesterday I
forgot the bread
in my breaking
bre ad drawing.

Breaking Bread

It's Raining!

So after taking photos
she decided it should
look like it was rain-
ing. A Photoshop challen-
ge, I thought. After a
pretty good attempt, she
demanded a reshoot with
the hose getting the sub-
ject all wet.

The Neighbor's Dog

She brought the neigh-
bor's dog to our front
door. She found it had
escaped. I hardly rec-
ognized the pooch in
the arms of this go-
od Samaritan.

During peaceful yoga I heard thru the wall a financial speel.

A Greedy SOB

She was a gr-
eedy SOB,
primarily look-
ing out for
herself &
for those
she loved, wh-
ich included
the birds &
the bees & th-
e flowers & even
the weeds.     
       A greedy
       soul she was.

with it if I
found it.

Three Blind Men

I drove by three blind
men walking down the
street. One had a white
cane. They held onto each
other 4 dear life.

Octuplet Madness

Drawn while listening to CNN's coverage of the hot topic.

Dalai Lama vs. River

He decided that he'd
rather talk to the
river than ^ 2 the Dalia
Lama.

Sacrilege?

. . . world would end in 3 minutes.

On NPR, it was announced
it was 7:57 and that the
world would end in 3
minutes. I wasn't startled.

Later I realized that if
the lights were turned off
(so to speak) it would be ok.

Great Class

I went 2 a great class
2night. I didn't learn
anything. Now 4 the
real challenge -- to dive
off the hundred foot pole.

Buddhist Koan, CASE 46.PROCEED BEYOND THE TOP OF THE 100 FOOT HIGH POLE

Master Sekiso said, "You are at the top of the 100 foot high pole. How will you make a step further?" Another Zen Master of Ancient Times said, "One who sits on top of the 100 foot pole has not quite attained true enlightenment. Make another step forward from the top of the pole and throw one's own body into the 100,000 universes."

Mumon's Comments:
Should there be any who is able to step forward from the top of the 100 foot pole and hurl one's whole body into the entire universe, this person may call oneself a Buddha. Nevertheless, how can one step forward from the top of the 100 foot pole? Know thyself!

Should one be content and settle on top of the 100,000 foot pole,
One will harm the third eye,
And will even misread the marks on the scale.
Should one throw oneself and be able to renounce one's life,
Like one blind person leading all other blind persons,
One will be in absolute freedom (unattached from the eyes).

I heard that you don't
have to like or dislike your
students. You just have to
love them.

Face 2 Face

So I asked him if he had any
questions. What is the most
important thing in your life
???

Case of the Missing Hula Hoop

She left a message
wondering if I still
had the hula hoop
she gave me decad-
es ago. No, I cou-
ldn't move it 2 TX.

But           I
kept       it a
long         time.

Piggy Bank Query

So I asked the kid,
"If you take all your
money out of your
pocket is there still
money in your pocket?"

"He said
No!"

I Wanted to Scream

I wanted to scream
but I didn't know w-
hether to scream hap-
py or sad. It work-
ed. . . finally.

Catching a fal-

A Piece of Cake

So my sister calls disturbed
by my impermanence. I can
only assure her that
each day is an incredible
experience, some challen-
ging and some a piece of
cake.
