No Bunny

I don't usually look for, focus on or follow the darker, more disturbing stories in the news. But the ones about child abuse are the hardest to move on from. Since I didn't intend this blog to be a forum for expressing my displeasure, rage, etc. I've got to work on lightening the tone.

I love the quotes of the day feature on my iGoogle home page. They are a great way to start my brain first thing in the morning. Better than coffee really.
"The reason lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place is that the same place isn't there the second time."
- Willie Tyler

Good job paraphrasing Heraclitis. This from Wiki: "Heraclitus is famous for his doctrine of change being central to the universe, as stated in his famous saying, "You cannot step twice into the same river." He believed in the unity of opposites, stating that "the path up and down is one and the same," existing things being characterized by pairs of contrary properties."

Yin and Yang. Zen comes way later. The Greeks were there first, as usual.
