Ffolkes,
but it confirms the judgment of nature.”
~~ Cicero ~~
Life was here….
Hajime….. Today’s Pearl doesn’t exist. Oh, I know you see what looks like one, but, it isn’t what you think. A week or more of insomnia has taken its toll, & I don’t even have the chutzpah to go look for an archived Pearl to re-blog. Instead, I’m taking the day off, and will return tomorrow, with a full Pearl worth reading…. Well, as much as they ever are. For today, you get the simple seven star old-school pearl I have ready, and, that’s it…. Sorry, but, it will have to do…. In fact, we’ll get to that right now, so I can start my day off…. Here’s how that looks today….
Shall we Pearl?….

As promised, one simple, seven-star pearl on Life at Large…. Enjoy!….

When I works, I works hard.
When I sits, I sits loose.
When I thinks, I falls asleep.
Which is Why….
Sometimes I sits and thinks,
and sometimes,
I just sits.

a mile or two short

of what i already know and feel
innately.. instinctually.. and intuitively
as human being.. who knows or feels..
after 55 years.. could have read it before
or perhaps it’s genetic memory or flying
in the atmosphere.. bottom line is
Truth and LiGht
exists.. iN ways
of Wisdom and Love..
and reading deeper into
a book named ‘Sex at
Dawn’.. even
chimpanzees
if left alone by
scientists will
live more peaceful..
most everything starting
with the Agricultural
age.. has been
and now
iS a human
virus of culture..
iN total earth
misery..
The innate..
instinctual and
intuitive way
oF WiLd and
Free iS a way
of peace.. all sharing
where guilt is collecting
and giving is KinG.. now…
Yes.. the Beatles were correct
true prophets of the God of Nature..
‘All ya need
iS Love’..
the touchy
feely kiNd too..
to make Peace
a way of Life.. now..
everything else is just
a hard pill to swallow.:)
