The greatest battle of all is simply... Life.

the Super Bowl - the Game of all games.

Perhaps, one could say that there are no rules.
The Judge has ultimate power.
She can call the game at any time - for any reason.
The penalties in the Game are completely arbitrary -

Penalty for what, we ask?
The Judge is silent.

"You can never win," comes the answer,
"So just take pleasure in playing the Game."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

When you cry and weep,
when you are miserable,

- Osho

When you open up to the ultimate,

God is the ultimate dance.

and experience physical and emotional suffering
in ourselves, our family, and our friends.

and ultimate wisdom to be the true test of faith.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

more than our own, and I believe that sort of trust is excessive.

doctors, lawyers, priests. I trust my doctor's intentions toward me,
but I don't blindly follow his suggestions
without checking other sources also.
He was trained to prescribe a pill for everything,
and does it with the best of intentions,
but I often choose to trust God's quiet voice inside me
rather than my doctor's medical advice.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

but must accept his lot calmly,
even if they roll a few stones upon it.

to be your true self.

Push Your Buttons,
Get You Riled Up,
or Annoy You.
