I just ate some "Cup of Noodles" and man they were yummy because I put some Texas Pete hot sauce on them. My mouth is burning though, whew! I had the noodles for emergency food but I was hungry so...oh well. It is ironic that after just eating some of the most unhealthy food I'm getting ready to go do a workout at the gym. Hopefully I can go to the bathroom shortly.

I am working with DV making some films of photographs of the menshi mihas team. I am really having fun with it and I plan to turn this experience into a full fledged project. I am interested in doing a photo documentary and I have to whittle down my ideas into a doable project on my budget. I'll keep you posted.

Ok ok. It's been awhile. I have been celebrating right. No that's not it. I have been consumed by the news. I am listening to the protests and listening to the pro-war rhetoric as well. I can not get enough of it as I try not to injest but observe the current condition of humanity. There are so many opinions without compassion. The big surprise for me is the current influx of religious based hate.

"Be Here Now" Lately I have slid away from that saying where I have been embracing it for some time now. I have let my work overwhelm my day-to-day thoughts and then instead of meditation I have camped out in front of the news. I have been physically drained every day I come home from work for the past two weeks. I need to stop watching the news and absorbing all that comes with it these days. I am angry that this country wants to go to war. I am angry that the President is a racist and thinks racism is not an issue today. I am angry that US people are so selfish, greedy and arrogant. I feel sad that I am not doing enough to ease my anger and work toward a better world.

Ying and Yang. Last night my dreams were filled with Ying and Yang. The symbol more so than the concept is my meaning but of course the concept as well. As I was making the bed I noticed a subtle Ying and Yang symbol that I keep by my bed. It stood out bright to me. I feel this was left over from my walking meditation yesterday. I kept discovering found objects on my walk. It was the discard of others that was facinating to me and I kept the objects. I remember thinking Ying and Yang applied but only for a short passing thought.

Saturday morning. The best time to get up and get going in life for me. A great time to reflect on the past week and just be in all that today can be. I'm feeling good, healthy and strong. The weather outside looks great and I hope to get out there in it soon.
I had a great dinner last night. I tried one of those roasted chickens you can buy from the grocery store in the meat department. It was damn good. I must admit. The price was reasonable considering all we had to do was warm it up for about 30 minutes. It saved a lot of time and it was perfect for just two people. I tried it as an alternative to getting something from a restaurant.

The second cloned baby is born. Who knew? A news story sweeps the world without any proof or investigation. Does anyone check the facts before a rush to press or video? I can understand the wanting to report the story but the immediate attacks of credibility are amazing. Are we headed back to believing the world is flat? Maybe.
Ok. I have been checking out some other blogs and mine is lame. I can do better with this. Can't I? I have got to figure this thing out but not by being too hard on myself. I will make a resolution to work harder for me in 2003. It's all for me in 2003. I should sell that as a slogan. It is so American.
