: Actually...only Buddhists have issues with
: lust, so scratch that.
:
: ------------------------
:
: Not so much lust, more desire actually.
:
: ------------------------
:
: Ah...
:
: Nice.
:
: So you have a desire to calm/control/reign
: in desire.
:
: Does that make metaphysical sense to you,
: Sweet Pea?
:
: --------------------------
:
: Can you think of any other way cupcake?

:
: Well, the "Survival of the Fittest
: Desire" Rule works for me; Desires
: that are useful/productive tend to hang
: around. Those that aren't tend to fall away
: in time--to the extent that I get out of the
: way and don't interfere with the process.
:
: (You haven't addressed my
: quandary--concerning how one goes about
: calming/controlling/reigning in desire
: through the exercise of desire.)

: Friends,
:
: Isaac Newton predicted the return of Jesus
: in 2012.
:
: The Mayan calandar ends in 2012.
:
: Other phrophesies also point to something
: big happening in 2012. Check out all the
: books being published right now about 2012.
: Could it be another Y2K? I don't know.
:
: I don't know about all these phrophesies but
: it doesn't take a Taoist sage to see that
: the World of Man is getting more and more
: strained with each passing day.
:
: Maybe something unexpected by most of us is
: coming our way. Speaking of "Fear and
: Desire" maybe something
: "Wonderful" as in "2010 A
: Space Odyssey" is coming. Or maybe we
: are simply on our last legs.
:
: And so I return to my categorical
: imperative. It does not matter what a person
: believes if they don't have love in their
: heart. Love even your enemies. Obviously
: Jesus did not know LD. Just kidding Last
: Days.
:
: Find your joy LD. Nothing else makes life
: worth living in my opinion. One thing about
: joy though. If your joy brings others pain
: then it is not the kind of joy I am talking
: about.
:
Joy and pain are equal partners Butch. Why trust one and not the other? And you know full well that underneath it all i love you more than i love myself Butch, so stop playing hard to get.
As to the 2012 hoo-ha, i look forward to setting up a waste paper recycling company to get rid of all the subject matter thrown out on the 1st of January, 2013.
