In to the wild

Luke, you are right. I am in Yala. Nothing like Ngorongoro or Maasai mara. But still good to be in natural world watching natural behaviour.

In to the wild

Unless the driver took a pic of that event Jim.

I hope he didn't.

In to the wild

That is a compliment Robert.

I wish I could be a tribal woman and live like a maasai woman in the wild with animals. They don't have to wear bras.

Riz,

Not Wilpattu. I am in Yala. Southern part. The highway was completed few months ago. So it's little more than 3 hour drive.

Wilpattu is a longer drive from Colombo and no highway. But I have to go up to that area very soon. An elephant mother gave birth to twin cubs. I hope I get to see them. It's first time recorded twins here.

In to the wild

Robbyreal,

Good to see you around.

Not going wild in the wild. I am behaving. But peed in the park. although there are rest rooms I couldn't hold till I get there. I had to mark my territory leopard way.

RE: All are equal

Equality won't happen if you add a colour to it.

Everyone will be equal when the common denominator becomes human.

Numerator is what makes the difference.

RE: Shopping Carts

I also thought of map who was in love with trolleys.

RE: Shopping Carts

Cat,

I am always friendly with the security guards, so they take my cart and unload it in the car and takes the cart back. Of course I tip them.

Thinking about it, I think I am lucky to have people who willingly carry my shopping. At the butchery, there is a guy who never lets me carry a bag. Most of the times shop people volunteer to take my bags to the car.

May be they all love me. But a younger boyfriend I dated in recent past said it's pheromones I produce that men seem to be at my service.


But I wish to think, it is because I am a nice person. Not pheromones.

Madness

Agree with you Lafonda.

Not all can unsee the roller coaster, madness and
normal and see life.

Madness

Fay, I think it is good you are enjoying the undying love and all the smiles that comes with it. Your parents are a testimony of love, and lasting love.

My love and prayers for them and you, lovely lady.

Wear a mask only in crowded places. But it is not healthy to wear it for long, I heard. Stay safe, stay blessed.

Madness

Wrinkly,

Complex and simplicity. Those two words are good pointers when understanding madness.

But nothing is simple in complexity.

Okay, I will cillax.

Madness

Doesdare,

Thank you very much for your comment. But please excuse my blunder as English is not my first language.

I like to learn the differences between insanity, crazy and mad.

If normal is typical, then typical of what?

Madly in love...I think if one has to feel mad to love, that's madness, not love.

Madness

Luke, I know what you mean. I think.

The confusion, the turmoil, the lack of proper insight. It's all crazy. I look at everything what is happening and ask, whaaaaat? We are supposed to be the only evolving species on earth.

Madness

Gg, although I posted the blog in a lighthearted manner, I was studying the mind according to Buddhists.

There can't be madness. Usual self and unusual self is a better way . I think. But then what is usual. Our usual selves are influenced by society and it's norms. Our thoughts and actions are influenced by other people more than ever. We witnessed this with BLM protests.

It's a deep topic. But I don't like being serious here.

Hope you are doing good.

Madness

Okay Mic. You made my life easy.

Everyone is mad. Agree, if that equals to everyone is normal.

Madness

Tim, good to see you around.

I think you are as mad as I am. but good madness.

Madness

We are returning to normalcy Johnny. Now I am wondering what is this normalcy. It's madness. I was getting used to lockdown. It was quite nice staying home.

I am always live and kicking. But when I stop to think, I go mad.

Madness

Iotaoo,

I am good. How are you and things going with your daughters?

I think you know Jata sutta. Anto jata, bahi jata. The tangle within and tangle outside. It's all a tangle. Madness is the order.

Madness

AI, love your new pic.

You are trying to confuse me right?

Madness

Johnny, don't ponder too much.

Fences and Norms. Names and Forms. All in the head. There is nothing if you can get rid of it all.



Am I confusing you more ?

If yes, that was the plan.

RE: What Happened To Waterbeds?

I'd be glad to see your fish tank Cat, and even help you with positions in the waterbed if you ask me to. I mean lying on your back and sideways an all.

Africa is where my heart beats right. I don't have any travel plans there as of now. I wouldn't want to leave if I come. There is nothing like hearing the rains down in Africa. All in good time.

Take care and at least show up here once in a way with a blog please. I miss the good ones.

RE: What Happened To Waterbeds?

I am happy to see you Cat. Hope all is good with you.

I know nothing about water beds.

Stay safe!

RE: Hey June ... a lockdown parody. A moment of lightening up.

He has a lovely tone in his voice. And love the lyrics.

I thought things would calm down after the strawberry moon.

Thank you for sharing.

RE: You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

Even the bad trees produce oxygen. The purpose of a tree is not the fruit alone Harbal. We should not take any notice of bad trees or their fruits. So spare the axe Harbal.

Anyway, last thing I need right now is protests for Bad trees matter. I am getting sick of chaos all over.

RE: Stories of the flood. Gilgamesh and in the real Bible...

I am wondering why you are looking for a religion. A moderately tolerable one ?

I think religious practices are nothing but states/modes of meditation.

When we pray, we seek forgiveness. I think it is a state of consciousness rather than repentance. Even if it is repentance, it is awakening consciousness. Isn't it?

You don't need a religion V. You don't have to belong to one. Mindfulness is a self taught practice. Digging history is trying to validate your beliefs. Why do you want to validate your beliefs. It should be your experience of a greater power, than just a belief. I'd say.

Stay safe.!

RE: Why I lose my temper

The problem is in you Harbal. What doesn't kill you should make you laugh. Not get angry.

Their stupidity not your own. Just laugh out and pass without giving much thought.

Anyway, stay safe at work.

RE: Our First Get Together

I love reading your parent's love story. It brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eyes.

Wish her health and happiness always.

Bless you all.

RE: I've never had any desire to talk about religion or politics

It would have been nice if you told us what you desire to talk about, so that we could cue the music and open a wikipedia tab or our own brains.

Hi cranky.

RE: Disappointed in the female specie.

Did she wear gloves or sanitized her hands before whacking you? You should have told her off.

RE: Evidence that Covid 19 was around in November?

Sorry Chat, I didn't see your comment. Hope all is good.
