Just be ordinary
Just be what they programmed you to be
Just safely fit in and never stand out as being different
Just try to impress a large number of others who are just like you…
who are practically exact clones or copies of what you are
Just continue to perceive like you and everyone else
were taught to perceive
Just continue to constrain or manage internal fears
while thinking that they are something separate from what you are
Just try to get ahead and have a wonderful time
impressing yourself while thinking that self is something separate
from animals plants experiences others thoughts and time…
just like everyone else tends to

My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.

I can only agree with Leyla, Thomas, have a nice week-end, regards Mitza
Thanks very much, Mitza! As i cherish the ordinary (hee hee), i hope your weekend is magical and different! 🙂
gosh, Thomas, when my weekends were magical I was 20…. Wish I could turn the clock back. Hope your weekend is great with wife and tweetie-pie. We had snow and rain, everything is icy and slippery and I have to take care with my bike. I’m walking and driving like on eggshells, hehe 🙂
It’s freezing rain and snow here. Yuk! (Age has nothing to do with magic!) 🙂
