Ffolkes,
In staying true to my new routines, I spent yesterday again immersed in music, which is, quite frankly, providing me with a LOT of emotional purging… catharsis, in its finest form. In addition, it’s given me an idea of what direction to follow to actually find the bliss I have ever sought… more on that another time. For now, it’s enough to know I’m headed aright, and feeling properly good about it.

It’s got some excellent retro- and introspection, diving into the Way of Tao, as outlined in the Tao Teh Ching…. well, you’ll see. There is also a most excellent video, which I could hope the entire world would hear…. Also, one of my best poems is here, so, all in all, it’s a worthy replacement for anything I might create today…& I hope you enjoy it….
Me, I’m gonna go to the water, with my guitar, where I’m going to sit, play, and sing until I get hoarse… might even get some pictures, taken, who knows?
Whatever happens, I hope y’all enjoy today’s old Pearl, and that you have as good a day as the one I intend to find….
See ya

I have sought to understand this principle for a very long time now, and feel I’ve made some progress, to the extent of knowing I still have far to go….
But, as Lao Tzu said, in another part of the Tao Teh Ching, a journey of a thousand miles begins with one step; this means I may yet reach the point where it is possible to become…
