Give yourself more credit than that... Seven Pounds (2008) George Ristuccia: You know, Ben, I keep asking you this but why me? Ben Thomas: Because you are a good man. George Ristuccia: No, really. Ben Thomas: Even when you don't know that people are watching you. Really. You are a good man, even when you don't know that people are watching you.

Apologies. I'm a portrait artist, I meant no offense.

SereneBlue...just noticed your picture. You are beautiful. p.s. You're pretty too Mal but SereneBlue is lovely...really really lovely.

Trunk or Stigweard would make best moderators of Tao Bums. They've always been reasonable and fair. They also have the gift of being able to weigh the words instead of the person speaking them.

Today I had the day off. In the backa my yarda this morning practicing. Beautiful sunshiny day. Protection check first - Stillness-Movement for a bit, then moved into Gift of the Tao. Attracted woodpeckers and sparrows. They landed close to me and were visible on the oak tree. One (woodpecker, huge fella) landed on a small tree so close I could have reached out and touched it. We made eye contact. Pleasant peaceful feeling....practiced for a bit then paid my respect to the oak tree. All the while woodpeckers and sparrows about..uninterested and not alarmed by me. Moved away from the tree to my original spot and practiced some more until I felt the stillness. I focused on your question then and asked the Earth. Wasps immediately became visible around me. One started circling really close and then went kamikaze trying to get into my face, repeatedly pinging off of it, and my neck and shoulders. Question brought a sick feeling in my stomach as well as an all over body shudder...my hands wove side to side and I heard "burn". I didn't see anything. My eyes were wide looking at nothing in paticular...when outside I sometimes see "snow" - little particles floating about...especially when I look at the sky. But...I didn't see anything change when I asked...just felt it...like it was me responding to something with distaste.
