Ban

Troglodytic Trouvère

I am fluent in Banchurian, Bandarin, Bantonese, Bangali and Sbanish. In each language it is well understood that victory belongs to the Ban.

The moth has escaped again.
Why is the word ban echoing in my mind? That's why the moth has escaped. It uses every moment when I lose focus.

Thats very strange. In my language book it says Ban = second place.

I wonder now if Arachne is a blue moth, or if we are looking through their eyes at their next prey.

Computers do attract bugs and get attacked by viruses so quite like fruit in those respects. As to computers ripening, how else would you describe the evolution of microsoft products? Now ripe cheese is where its really at, gorgonzola, Mmmm...

Not sure if there's blue moths but there's blue butterflies like the blue fritillary

Saying "there's" when one ought to say "there are" is a pet peeve of mine and all who do so should automatically lose.

And they do, because I win again.

Touche.

I actually used to do it all the time as a kid and it drove my brother crazy. But then I was an aid in an English classroom and the teacher used "there's incorrectly. Ever since then it has bugged me.

Unfortunately it is a rare person who actually uses it properly. I foresee "there are" going extinct.

There is no such thing as right or wrong when it comes to vying. But, is there a second place? There is only one and the first for me in everything.

You ask me to do the impossible. If I expect it then it is not the unexpected anymore. How can I solve this problem?

The impossible is only impossible because you believe it is impossible. Forget what you know to be true and the possibilities are endless.

I said expect the unexpected and you're reality will be unexpected. Expect anything and there are no limitations or conundrums.

Beliefs comfort us, ground us, relieve us from worry, and unburden us from thinking, but they also bind us, blind us, control us, defame us, limit us, and keep us trapped. Unchain your mind, remove the shackles of conditioning, and deprogram your thinking. Do this and you will experience true freedom, true joy, where the unimaginable becomes commonplace, and impossible no longer holds dominion over you.

How? Well, the beginning is awakening, a method is shadow work. Wake up to the possibilities, I have yet to find a downside past the dark night of the soul. But be ready to face your demons, be wary of what the third eye will show you.

"The root of suffering is attachment." - The Buddha.

I believe you. Not absolutely, though. Maybe 90% or so.

Being open to all possibilities frees you from attachments, at least partly. I agree it relieves you from unnecessary suffering in more than one way.
But then again, there are attachments that season life making it easier to bear the necessary suffering.

There is no absolute freedom, anyway, regardless of how many inner demons you face.
