The Chicago Sun-Times (you know Chicago, the city that dyed it's river GREEN in celebration of St. Patricks Day (March 17th), well they inform me that there are 4 Billion atoms in the period you will find at the end of this sentence . HHHMMmmmnnn ! I’d like to know who counted them !

Within each of us there is a lot of stuff. No one actually counted them; it’s just an estimate mind you, but it is figured that there are some 50 Trillion or so cells within the average human being. Some of us are more average than others, mind you !

Average…87.3 % (on average) of all statistics are made up on the spot !

Average…(this is suppose to be real), from Roper Polls I believe, but 80 % of the populace of the United States believe they have an ‘above average intelligence’ !

The Ancient Taoist Sage and I were sitting drinking Tea this past week , and he remarked: “Your energy seems very good, clear and steady.” I remarked, Practice !

He Smiled and sipped his Tea…and waited. I continued; my Breathing and Chi Gung practices were allowing me to slow down, to actually taste the food, and smell the flowers. I said I was having a kind of “internal garage sale”, getting rid of things, stuff, idea’s and fancies, concepts , and perhaps more importantly, I was forgiving myself and others for ‘errors of the past’ !

“Ah”, the Old Sage said, I am glad for you ! Perhaps as you say, "you are uncovering space forJoy ! I remember you when you were the HULK … armored, as it were, with all that muscle… I think you are better now ! Yes, tending the insides is always best !

As the Lineage Master of the Taoist Water School , B.K. Frantzis is fond of saying : “If you must choose to either be rich on the inside or rich on the outside, choose the inside, be rich within, where you live 24 / 7” !

Then the Ancient Taoist Sage said, "allow me to share one thing, perhaps in three parts; for as you know, we Taoists have an affinity for the number three (and they pretty much abhor the number four, as it rhymes with death). Allow me to simply share these three things that can have a positive effect in helping to loosen the Ego’s grasp on the mind, perhaps leading to freedom :

First : “Give up being the star of your own movie”.

The Second is “no longer measuring the so-called success of your life by how many of your wants you have met” !

And the Third : would be “renouncing your attachment to being right !”

More Pu Erh Tea ? ...
