Welcome to ...

The place where the world comes together in honesty and mirth.
Windmills Tilted, Scared Cows Butchered, Lies Skewered on the Lance of Reality ... or something to that effect.

Some profound thoughts!

Found this as I was perusing the Scrutiny Hooligans Blog and thought damn that's some good words there, so I brought them here.

*****

"The only dream worth having is to dream that you will live while you are alive, and die when you are dead.
To love, to be loved.
To never forget your own insignificance.
To never get used to the unspeakable violence and vulgar disparity around you.
To seek joy in the saddest places.
To pursue beauty to it's lair.
To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple.
To respect strength, never power.
Above all, to watch.
To try and understand.
To never look away.
And, never, never forget."
~ Arundhati Roy

And I Quote

If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.
