Dear Pinkola,

I was just laughing, not at you, but to my self while reading your post return to me. I am not so sure how you have done it, but, you certainly had me figured out quickly.

I am a push over with that type of prose. Just a sentalmental old fool, just simply loved it..

My gift to you is this:

The Oak Tree

For every oak that grows, for ever leaf that falls.

It is natures love to say: Stand by me, for my strength will protect you.

Stay under me, for I will protect you from the elements.

Use my emage, and we will together, stand strong and protected.

For God has created us both.

BHescheid, what people? Carl

Carl, you have me there as to what people, no matter who would be named, there would be the question of: Why not us from the people not named. I had not actually thought of it as literal, just symbalic as prose. As of an earlier prose I had given to Leslie in an earlier post when first I came aboard. It was as follows:

I shall grow old,

but never lose

Life's zest

because the roads's

last turn

will be the best.

By Henry van Dyhe (hard to read the authers name, very old)

In the above prose, we would not ask, what road or where does it go, or, who travells it, it is just understood as prose.

Does that make sense?

Charles

Dear Charles,

You certainly didn't make me laugh, but you sure put a smile on my face.
Thank you.

Ela

Charles, makes sense indeed.Thanks. Carl

Early in the sixteenth century Pomponazzi,a philosopher at Padua,wrote a book ,On the Immortality of the Soul,in which with great acumen he examined the problem of the relation of soul to body.
He concluded that no evidence demonstrates and no analogy suggests that the soul can survive dissociated from the body, as the Platonists supposed.
Yet he too accepted immortality as the revealed doctorine of the Church.

Pinkola, I don't kmow if soul can surivive without the body or the other way. Most probably noone knows that before he's dead or mayebe just the most enlighted of enlighted. But these are not very willing to spread that knowledge to the unprepared ordianry souls like mine. In effect I think that throuthhout the ages philosophers of all kind have said almost everything related to the esachatoligical matters. Does it mean that every sentence they've said is 100% true? Especially if the cited philospher failed in forming a coherent doctrine?

Dear Adam ,

After all, we were born into this world to find truth and the essence of ourselves and we may as well do it with enthusiasm.

George Sand, French writer and lover of Frederick Chopin, wondered what the soul � "the essence of the eternal spirit" � did while the body went through its painful and austere daily existence.

"It is somewhere in space and in time, since space and time are the conditions of all life.

"It has preceded human life and directs it up to a certain point, but it is not dominated by it and does not number its days and hours by the same instrument," she wrote.

Pinkola,
I miss you at
there
