Sunday night – Coffee Mate

 Friends..   It’s 1:30 in the morning and I have too much to say for the wakefulness I still have in me. My day began with 7AM Yoga at Omega in Rhinebeck..

and ended with me blowing up several pounds of non-dairy coffee creamer in th parking lot of the Department of Motor Vehicles in Montpelier at 12:so AM.   In the middle I did a great deal of listening to Deepak Chopra,    had many great conversations with Diane.. Came home to my kids.. had dinner out with Gabe and his friends, 

and watched Max film some of his main scenes from the Voices movie.

I don’t have the energy to try to fit all these elements into a sane narrative. I still have much thinking to do to integrate the messages we hear in the Deepak Chopra seminar we attended.. There was much to take in.. It was truly transformational for me.. though it’s  main message was pretty subtle. I  promise to try and extract what I really heard form  it tomorrow.. If I do that, can I get off easy tonight ? Let me take the cheap shot of most authors and stretch my posting tonight with a quotation.. This one’s from T.S. Eliot’s ‘The Hollow Men’ …   I like it because it almost ends with a ‘bang’

Between the idea
And the reality
Between the motion
And the act
Falls the Shadow

For Thine is the Kingdom

Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion
And the response
Falls the Shadow

Life is very long

Between the desire
And the spasm
Between the potency
And the existence
Between the essence
And the descent
Falls the Shadow
For Thine is the Kingdom

For Thine is
Life is
For Thine is the

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

 

On 10 tin can, 3 tablespoons of Pyrodex, one kleenex, 6 inches of  dynomite fuse and 3 pounds of Coffee-Mate non dairy creamer..and one match.  go figure !



I love you all. I love you too Sam..
