A
ROUND UP & SEVERE BEATING OF THE WEEK'S NEWS
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In
a struggle between hunger and thought
it
is always a case of: stuffed or starved.
And
now today’s single, test question:
When
you get a stomach ache do you:
blame
food, -- hunger -- or your eating?
- - -
What
bothers the certain man cannot be cured;
all
he can do is understand it;
he
can never stop it -- only understand what it is, which (as
it turns out) --
proves
to be all the relief he needs.
- - -
No
method, tool, trick or procedure to change your consciousness
is
generally useful for more than four or five hours;
after
that you begin running off of the memory of the excitement you felt
upon
first discovering it.
Nothing
is as exhilarating as bad news about yourself...... (if you’re the
right kinda person).
- - -
The
way that non technical thoughts survive
is
by men acquiescing to their pretensions of some importance.
- - -
Joke
Of The Day: One man says: “When I hear
someone speak of some matter
which
they say is a serious threat to life -- I do not think
it is funny.”
..............................(No,
you didn't misread: that is
the Joke Of The Day
all right.)
- - -
The
only thing dumber, less meaningful and more ridiculous than
people
analyzing, criticizing and predicting other men’s behavior
is
doing so concerning their thinking.
- - -
For
ordinary minds, being around other people -- especially if
conversing --
makes
time seem to move faster.
(Routine people
appear to have a real liking for this.)
- - -
The
most important contribution anyone can make to their own mental health
is to stop making themselves sick by listening to what their mental
has to say.
One
man had a brain tumor -- “Better that,” he says, “Than no brain at
all.”
Only
the crudest sort would speak of the “brain”
when
he could just as easily say, “mind”.
........(or else a true friend.)
If
YOU
have nothing to do -- YOU
should do nothing.
(The
YOU
that people mean by the word [don't
forget], is not your body; it exists solely in your thought.)
- - -
How Mind Works, 2,006 (as exemplified in civilian headlines):
People
who talk aloud to themselves are unwittingly on to something
that
the certain man could profitably employ.
The
two best things you can hear are: things that invigorate you,
and
things that rub you the wrong way.
Any
thought that is about you is going no where.
-
- -
Fact
Of The Day: Someone who spooks ordinary
people understands nothing.
(P.S. spooky
people are annoyed to hear this said. Shhhh!)
- - -
One
man says:
“I
have better things to do than waste my time on my thoughts!
I MUST have!”
Definition
Of The Day: Meditation:
Coward’s attempt to fly.
On
one planet, if thought is not fun -- you are not thought to
be doing it right.
- - -
“Dad,
are you the only person in the world who knows what is going on?”
“I could be, but remember: there is always a second possibility to everything:
Quote
Of The Day: “Although I am neither
a sub atomic physicist, nor a cosmologist,
I
know enough about them (and other things) to realize
this:
there
is nothing in this entire universe as strange as me standing here saying
this,
and
being aware that I have just done so.”
“Pa pa, be honest: have you told me everything you know?”
J
“What is the funniest
thing you have ever been asked?”
“‘How do you want to be remembered?’”
