don't think, just cram.

Joy gives us wings! In times of joy our strength is more vital, our intellect keener, and our understanding less clouded. We seem better able to cope with the world and to find our sphere of usefulness. But when sadness visits us we become weak, our strength leaves us, our comprehension is dim and our intelligence veiled. The actualities of life seem to elude our grasp, the eyes of our spirits fail to discover the sacred mysteries, and we become even as dead beings.

Abdu'l-Baha, Paris Talks.


i think not thinking counts as being joyless and as a dead being, too.

suggested new mantra:

look to the future.

thank you leial. i read the Writings over three times, and started thinking - thats a good sign that the mantra is changing!

excuse me leila but you guys should come back to australia for a little in 16 weeks i think. its only fair. australia and its people love you.

caz - if you knew leila, you'd know you knew leila. ley's a hard girl to not know you know.

i don't think i know you, caz, because i can't find a picture of you.

and we are coming to sydney (after china) on our way "home". we'll be with the parentals for at least a couple of weeks.

i can't wait to see you then.

(i know that stuff you're doing is hard. look after yourself.)


love love.
