PHILOSOPHY

"Meditate on this I will." -- Yoda

"Causes are only lost when people give up." -- Xena

"Those who educate children well are more to be honored than parents, for these only gave life, those the art of living well." -- Aristotle

"Our body and mind are not two and not one. If you think your
body and mind are two, that is wrong; if you think that they are
one, that is also wrong. Our body and mind are both two _and_
one. We usually think that if something is not one, it is more
than one; if it is not singular, it is plural. But in actual
experience, our life is not only plural, but also singular."
-- Shunryu Suzuki, _Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind_

"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they
will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based
on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust,
then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods,
then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will
live on in the memories of your loved ones." -- Marcus Aurelius

"A chic type, a rough type, an odd type -- but never a stereotype."
-- Jean-Michel Jarre

Playing with dolphins in Jamaica, hiking weird grassy mountains on Faroe Islands, visiting Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, eating Icelandic hakarl (rotten shark...) in Reykjavik (and in Oslo)

Teach, Learn, Share

I play didgeridoo and some drums and percussion.
