[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 659226, member: 17461"] What would that mean Copa, if you never got up from bed. There is a circle here somewhere, some place you are trapping yourself because there is something you know but refuse to know at the same time. (Huh. Looks like I know everything again this morning. Forgive me.) Here is a story. There is a young samurai warrior. He is training in a monastery. Something happens for which he is not responsible; something to do with the woman he loves. She rejects him or he loses her to a stronger, wealthier samurai. He learns of the deception. He is shamed and defiant and enraged. He leaps into the community cesspool. He stays there, grimly determined. The moon rises; the sun sets. He remains in the cesspool, grimly determined that he merits nothing more, not even the release of death. Time passes. The moon is full. In its silvery light, he sees a lotus. He climbs out of the cesspool. Cedar [/QUOTE]
