About me:
For my autobiography see:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pharseas.world/story.html

I have just published a book, see:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pharseas.world/NewSkins.html
and
http://www.universal-publishers.com/book.php?method=ISBN&book=1581129602

Theologically, I am of a "radical-orthodox-traditionalist" bent. I believe strongly in objective truth and the reliability of the Christian Tradition, but I do not think that the conventional attempt to turn truth and tradition into simple rules about "do and don't" is at all successful. See:

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/pharseas.world/OldAndNew.html

I am disenchanted with what has been going on in the Catholic Church over the last forty years, seeing it as a "dumbing down" both of the practice and theory of the faith. I would like to see more honesty and dialogue in the Church, coupled with a confidence that the Gospel is "God's Truth", and rightly appreciated holds the answers to mankind's troubles.

In essence, I think, the Good News is that God wants to be the friend of all men and women, and that it is time we started being each other's friends. See:

You are a flirtateous and energetic romantic partner, fun and engaging, always looking for something unusual to try. In your enthusiam, you may make promises you can't keep. Your competitive nature and need to be perceived as an expert can be daunting to a romantic partner at times. You so enjoy the tug of a good debate that sometimes you act as if you don't take anything seriously. You are usually very supportive and helpful to your mate, but somewhat scattered and unable to devote your full attention there. You feel most appreciated for your great ideas, unusual perceptiveness, and ability to understand and communicate with people. You feel most appreciated when your partner understands your need for lots of social contact and your need to live life as spontaneously as possible.

The moment you become miserly you are closed to the basic phenomenon of life: Expansion, Sharing.
 




The moment you start clinging to things, you have missed the target--you have missed. Because things are not the target, You, your innermost being, is the target--




not a beautiful house, but a Beautiful you;




not much money, but a Rich you;




not many things, but an Open Being, available to millions of things.
~Osho




Wishing You Many Blessings of Love Light & Joy!
Namaste

Stephen,

Please, why is that the Presocratic Philosophers are said to "flourish" instead of a given date? Form my understanding we DO know the approximate dates of life and death for most. Is it simply a classical studies license? Will Durant did this often. Why? 

thanks

Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes.
Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly.




Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end




What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind.



Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.

In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst.
In the name of the values that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless in those who have never achieved his title.



Do not lose your knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind and a step that travels unlimited roads.
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all.
 



Do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been able to reach.
Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours.
~Ayn Rand's novel Atlas Shrugged

Don't go off sightseeing.
The real journey is right here.
The great excursion starts
from exactly where you are.




You are the world.
You have everything you need.
You are the secret.
You are the wide opened.




Don't look for the remedy for your troubles
outside yourself.
You are the medicine.
You are the cure for your own sorrow.

In Sri Lanka, we often compare human life to a river.
When river water falls down the hills, it creates a beautiful waterfall.
When it crashes on rocks, white foam is created, expressing its incredible hidden beauty. When the river silently flows through the valleys, it becomes mysterious and magical.





These different things that happen to the river water along its path are all manifestations of its beauty.
So, too, if we are to make meaning out of our odyssey as human beings on this planet, we have to accept that whatever happens on our way adds to life's beauty.~
Bhante Wimala

I will greet this day with love in my heart. And how will I do
this? Henceforth will I look on all things with love and be born again.


I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it cleanses my spirit.

I will love the light for it shows me the way; yet I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars.
I will welcome happiness as it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure sadness for it opens my soul.


I will acknowledge rewards for they are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge.

Live life fully while you're here.
Experience everything.
Take care of yourself and your friends.

Have fun, be crazy, be weird.
Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process.

Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it.
