Keeping it simple … ( 03 / 03 / 2012 )
“ Dear God : Please protect me from knowing what I don ’ t need to know . And protect me from even knowing that there are things to know that I don ’ t know . And protect me from knowing that I decided not to know about the things that I decided not to know about . Amen … And dear Lord , please protect me from the consequences of the previous prayer .” ~ Douglas Adams
“ An expert is a man who tells you a simple thing in a confused way in such a fashion as to make you think the confusion is your own fault .” ~ William Castle
It ’ s brilliant humor aside , the Douglas Adams quote above has a very deep Truth somewhere inside it ( hint : it rests in the irony of the last sentence ) … Of course , as William Castle points out with equal brilliance , it doesn ’ t have to be that complicated .
So let ’ s keep it simple :
The convoluted path with no satisfactory end : seek “ love ” for ourselves . The simple Way to a fantastic life : get out there and LOVE somebody !
LOVE is a verb … … got LOVE ?
“ Stripped of all its outer encrustations , spirituality emerges as a science ; as scientific as any other ; as verifiable in its results .” ~ Kirpal Singh
