PENITENCE

1

SINCE foolishness and sin
In my found origin
In all my lifetime, none
Through me to pleasure won.

I look for equity,
Which none obtains from me;
Against the world I cry,
The world's complaint am I.

2

Alas, alas! from em
Springs all inequity;
Ah woe! a thousand sighs
Through my injustice rise.

'For what thy hands have wrought:'
So have the Scriptures taught;
Then is my soul forlorn
Whereof all grief was born.

~The Rubaiyat of Jalal Al-Din Rumi
Select translations
into English Verse' by A.J. Arberry, 1949.

I gave it seeds, but no comment for, I believe, it needs none.  It stands on its own.

What (or who) is waiting for you?

Posted on Apr 7th, 2009 by heemes : Philosophy Minor, Life Major heemes
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for April 07, 2009:

There is an old Challenge Day aphorism that goes:

"Be The Hero You've Been Waiting For"

I guess that's me.  :-)

From Wildly Gentle Martha - Connecting Creatively (in Tandem)

Posted on Apr 6th, 2009 by heemes : Philosophy Minor, Life Major heemes
...here's the deal:

The first five (5) people to respond to this post will get something made by me!

This offer does have some restrictions and limitations so please read carefully:

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make. None whatsoever.
2. What I create will be just for you, with respect.
3. It'll be done this year (2009).
4. It will be something made in the real world and not something cyber. It may be weird or beautiful. It may be edible. It may be ugly.
5. I reserve the right to do something strange. It will probably not involve cheese.
6. In return, all you need to do is nothing.  Well, a smile would be great.

If you're one of the first 5 people to respond and repost, I will send you a message later to get your mailing address.

Why Livejournal Beats Facebook, Myspace, and even Gaia...

Posted on Apr 6th, 2009 by heemes : Philosophy Minor, Life Major heemes
...when it comes to Friends and understanding relationships between people.

Almost all the social networks allow a simple "We're Friends" connection.  In this environment, we're either mutual friends or not friends at all.  Something is either present or not. 

However, LJ allows two more possibilities for friendship connections, each being a one-way friendship.  This rings truer based on my own experience in the real world.

In other words, how many times have you thought, "I am more a friend to him/her than (s)he is to me."?

How could you answer the question, "What do you do?"

Posted on Mar 31st, 2009 by heemes : Philosophy Minor, Life Major heemes
This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for March 31, 2009:

I do my best to undo doing and create being.  There is no need to do when being is present.  All flows from my be-ing's essence.  (sometime a little lesson in not taking another person's inventory helps me too)
