Don't look for it outside of yourself.
You are the source of milk. Don't milk others! There is a milk fountain inside of you.
Don't walk around with an empty bucket. You have a channel into the ocean, and yet
You ask for water from a little pool . . . Rumi

and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

I got something done. It was exhausting, but worth it. I was exultant. I was feeling good.

I ate brown rice cereal, almond milk, almonds, green rooibos tea and mango for breakfast. I finally got a little laundry done, not too soon. I had Thai red curry with shrimp and vegetables, rice, okra, green Rooibos tea, a pappadum and a piece of mango for lunch. I...

Up with the sun, although I never really went to sleep. Not my choice, either, due to neighborhood noise. Went on a mission. Doing something to help someone. I found out what I needed to know. Made two trips to the place in question. Tried to solve the problem but it seemed like more supplies would be needed.

Unfortunately, the night before, up working...

I got up around seven a.m. and went for a walk to try to solve a problem. I did some information gathering. It was pretty amazing. The noisy animal (not a dog or cat) I was trying to trace didn't make noise when I was there, just before and after.

Who Benefits from the Baltimore Riot?

baltimore, protest, freddie gray
