If the desire to write is not accompanied by actual writing, then the desire must be not to write.

You say you just want to be my friend. I know that you mean you want to relate to my mind but not my body. I can understand that and will not ask you to relate to me in a way that you don't want to, or talk to me about subjects you find uncomfortable. But likewise I refuse to castrate myself for you by pretending not to have the feelings I have. If you want me as your friend you will have to accept my penis along with me.

Sometimes I doubt and sometimes I believe. And I like not making myself believe when I am doubting, and not making myself doubt when I am believing. Surely neither God nor Accident need my consistency.

Today I acknowledge that I am not in position to judge what mistakes anyone is making or what lessons anyone needs to learn. I don’t know how far someone has come or when that person will have a breakthrough, I simply don’t know what other people should be doing. But when I think I do know, I clearly am not doing what I should be doing, which is taking responsibility for my own life.

It's not that we fear the place of darkness, but that we don't think we are worth the effort to find the place of light.

No matter what we talk about, we are talking about ourselves

Egos clash. That's the nature of egos.Treat these outbursts as sneezing fits.

I sometimes react to making a mistake as if I have betrayed myself. My fear of making a mistake seems to be based on the hidden assumption that I am potentially perfect and that if I can just be very careful I will not fall from heaven. But a 'mistake' is a declaration of the way I am, a jolt to the way I intend, a reminder I am not dealing with the facts. When I have listened to my mistakes I have grown.

By approaching my problems with "What might make things a little better?" rather than "What is the solution?" I avoid setting myself up for certain frustration. My experience has shown me that I am not going to solve anything in one stroke; at best I am only going to chip away at it.

Boredom or discontent is useful to me when I acknowledge it and see clearly my assumption that there's something else I would rather be doing. In this way boredom can act as an invitation to freedom by opening me to new options and thoughts. For example, if I can't change the activity, can I look at it more honestly?

Next time I will ...""From now on I will ..."- What makes me think I am wiser today than I will be tomorrow?

When I have listened to my mistakes I have grown.

Boredom is useful to me when I notice it and think: Oh I'm bored there must be something else I want to be doing ... boredom acts as an initiator of originality by pushing me into new activities or new thoughts.

Just when I think I have learned the way to live life changes.

When I have listened to my mistakes I have grown.

It is enough that I am of value to somebody today.

I like a man with faults especially when he knows it. To err is human- I'm uncomfortable around gods.

Perfectionism is slow death.

To avail yourself of His certain wisdom ask of Him whatever questions you have. But do not entreat Him for that will never be necessary.

It is enough that I am of value to somebody today.

It is enough that I am of value to somebody today.

Unless I accept my faults I will most certainly doubt my virtues.

It's not that "today is the first day of the rest of my life " but that now is all there is of my life.

Every moment that I am centered in the future I suffer a temporary loss of this life.

I live now and only now and I will do what I want to do this moment and not what I decided was best for me yesterday.
