Sunset view from Mt. Balsam Cone - The Highest Point on the Blue Ridge Parkway Vital suffering is consciousness undergoing the process of surpassing itself. Teach me and I remember. The dream of tomorrow carries the trash of yesterday, and thus the cleansing. The compassion in dreams is allowing one to develop at his own pace. The cleansing cold waters of Appalachia brings Nature into your heart, and Compassion.
Life leads the thoughtful One on a course of many windings.
First the course is checked, now it runs strait again. Here winged thoughts may pour freely forth in words, There the heavy burden of knowledge must be shut away in silence. But when two people are at one in their inmost hearts, They shatter even the strength of iron or of bronze. And when two people understand each other in their inmost hearts, Their words are sweet and strong, like the fragrance of orchids. When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.
