“I’M HAVING AN INTELLECTUAL MELTDOWN!” That’s what my friend said when he called me this morning. “I’m overwhelmed by all the bad news” He said that he follows current events regularly and has decided that, as the old-timers used to say, “The world is going to hell in a hand-basket! Bad stuff happening all over the place”. “I disagree.” I replied, “I think things are better than they ever were; it’s just that now you can read and watch all the bad stuff that is happening instantly. More than ever people are looking to love and be loved! What my friend missed for instance while reading all the bad stuff was the science news about the physicist who has theorized that there are actually eight dimensions of reality, five of which we cannot see, and that our reality is just a hologram that seems real to us! So on a positive note, just be kind, make a difference in the lives of others, chop wood, carry water (A zen saying that means do what needs to be done without attachment) meditate daily, exercise, and live a life of love. Life is complex…Life is simple….I’m writing a new version of the Tao te Ching. A labor of love. I figured to end this blog/newsletter I would make you smile by playing Bobby McFerrin’s “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” Then I remembered that Robin William’s is in it. Robin William’s seems to be in ½ of the spiritual or motivational movies I own…”Patch Adams, What Dream’s May Come etc.” Like I said “Life is complex…Life is simple” Thank God for the Tao te Ching….Robin made us smile. I’m sorry that he worried and wasn’t that happy. Watch the video to see a time when he was. We all have our ups and downs. Don’t Worry, Be Happy https://youtube/watch?v=d-diB65scQU
