Funny how so often in my life when trouble brews I always return to the same few books. Zen and The Art... has been a constant in my life for over 10 years now. I have NEVER been without a copy in my collection. It has been a guide to life, a source of thought, a textbook, a life line and a window to another world. It is the book I most often give away, No mater how often I read it I find something new every time, as if the book grows with me.
sometimes turning to familiar pages gives me the support I need to go on. sometimes open it up to a random page and reading at a random spot answers all of the questions I have in life., Reading the last 10 pages reminds me of how I want/must live my life,
Phaedrus is back...

In all seriousness if you ever want to learn a thign or two about life, quality, philospohy and rational thought... or even if you just liek to think go read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
Still feeling better in general and better then yesterday and better then a few hours ago. In fact in a day or two I feel I may be back to posting about tin foil hats and begin angry.
who'd have ever thought I would one day be working to get to that point?
Know what my next tattoo is... time to save pennies.
