The thought manifests as the word;
The word manifests as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character;
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings…
As the shadow follows the body,
As we think, so we become.
--Buddha
Grant to me the serenity of mind to accept that which cannot be changed, the courage to change that which can be changed, and the wisdom to know the one from the other.
--Reinhold Niebuhr
For every ailment under the sun
There is a remedy, or there is none;
If there be one, try to find it;
If there be none, never mind it.
--Mother Goose
What you seek, you shall never find.
For when the Gods made man,
They kept immortality for themselves.
Fill your belly.
Day and night make merry,
Let Days be full of joy.
Love the child that holds your hand.
Let your wife delight in your embrace
For these alone are the concerns of man.
--Epic of Gilgamesh

I am a 37-year old professor of English at a small liberal arts college. I share my life with my three cats, Lilith, Loki, and Sif. I am a simple man who enjoys simple pleasures, like drinking green tea or coffee (or Disaronno amaretto...mmmm), reading, watching good movies (or bad ones), and sleeping (a re-discovered pleasure after years of suffering from an untreated sleep disorder).
Right now I am trying to achieve a state of peace and contentment that has eluded me for so long. I am starting to realize that it has been inside me all along, just waiting for me to tear away all the fears and illusions and distractions and discover it.
Who I'd like to meet:
Eckhart Tolle. Anne Rice. Trent Reznor. Tori Amos. Shirley Manson. Alanis Morrissette.
i am good i just get bad headaches now a days need new glasses and cant afford them so how have you been i write you on yahoo but not reply back talk to you soon
You're welcome. Eh, it's half and half. Kinda good kinda bad. Going through a lot of shit involving my kid. Trying to find a job. But I am in a great relationship living in a nice place, and staying alive, so I can't complain too awful much, really. How about you?
It's a Japanese Shiba Inu. I don't much like the other colors they come in. http://www.shibainupuppiesuk.com/breedinfo.html (Scroll to the bottom of that page to see the other variations) The black sesame is what I have pictured on my profile. I think the others just look like Akitas.
i hope you have a wonderful birthday!!!
