Eight Things I know….

This meme came from my friend over at “Whee! All The Way Home”

1. I know ‘all things work together for good’. This from many years of experience in the art of life, which includes a large amount of ‘troubles and trials’.

2. I know that I know more today than I did yesterday…and I still make some of the same mistakes over and over again.

3. I have yet to meet an automobile dealer, new or used, (pardon, ‘previously owned’) that I could trust. Sorry, car people. It’s the nature of the beast.

4. I know at least one good mechanic I can trust. (Thank God for that)

5. I know that life is fundamentally just that…life. No more. No less. Neither all good nor all bad. It just is.

6. I know that in the end none of this will matter. It’s not about that. Existence exists. And I love every second of it.

7. I know that the love I have experienced is pure gift, and the love that I give is only that which I have received.

8 . Most of all, I know that I know nothing. It’s all just thoughts. And that as soon as I think them, they are gone, to be replaced by new thoughts…perhaps contradicting previous thoughts. So, I will then be “as the little child” (Jesus) or “have a beginners mind” (Buddha). Every moment is brand new

Sorry for all the pontificating. It seems to be my nature to be a little ‘philosophical’ (preachy?). I’ve never been very good at the ‘meme’ thing but thought it might be fun.
