#163 In Flight
The bird who sings proudly is praised by the creatures;
but the bird who is shy of voice is lost in the raindrops of laughter.
The bird who flies in the shadows, only to be seen by twilight; show your colors not! they will only fade...
sing beautiful robin, lilies will grow, and the ravens will fly with grace.
But the silent bird, will forever be hidden in the blooms of dusk.
cry out again my dear sweet bird,
find the darkness that resolves you.
Miss the day's light with closed eyes;
watch the others as they fly,
be not shy of verse; sing triumphantly.
"If you want to know the past, to know what has caused you, look at yourself in
the PRESENT, for that is the past's effect. If you want to know your future, then look at
yourself in the PRESENT, for that is the cause of the future."
--Majjhima Nikaya
"Let go of your attachment to being right, and suddenly your mind is more open.
You're able to benefit from the unique viewpoints of others, without being crippled by
your own judgment."
--Ralph Marston |

"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their
lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
