  • Jun 12 2012: Well

    that which IS "I" is infinite and the "AM" is that "story" of "I" becoming acquitted with "I"

    so yes in that sense it is "narcissistic' in the modern (post-greek) use of the word.

    Jun 11 2012: My story about a "cricket story" and what it revealed to me, for my story.
    An Indian lad and his close friend, were walking along Broadway near Times Squares, in New York city, when he stopped and said he just heard a cricket. “Impossible,” his friend replied, “there is just too much traffic noise to hear such a thing. The Indian, reached into a flower pot, at the entrance to a store and removed a hand-full of earth revealing a cricket. Clearing his hand, he grasped a handful of pocket coins and dropped them to the sidewalk, attracting the attention of several walkers; “we both have been given ears to hear and yet we are tuned-in, to hear different messages,” was his exclamation.

    After hearing this story, my mind flipped over to the three-monkeys; and then flipped again to another set of words [see evil, hear evil, talk about evil; then with your hands do something to overcome the situation of evil which has been revealed to you. Decide not to be, just a too busy passer-by.]
    Feel free to use my comments and reveal this as part of my living story.

    Peace.

          Jun 12 2012: How would '...... ' know its own story without ' I am that ' _ ' I am ' _ ' I ' ?
          '.......' loves all stories, it's a kind of narcissistic :)
  • Jun 11 2012: kentucky fried chicken... because I'm hungry
  • Jun 11 2012: Past, present, FUTURE!

    Perhaps obvious but it is a three word story.
