Just no words, happy that we have the moon in the sky and that it changes shape everyday, not always a round white globe. <BR/><BR/>Then thought about the logical explanation why the moon changes shapes,...people think that's the reality because science can prove it's true. <BR/><BR/>But in fact, what I see and feel is just our friend the moon making up her face differently everyday to give us fun. <BR/><BR/>Thank you Moon and thank you Robby for writing new blogs almost everyday for our enjoyment...<BR/>GoodlifeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15435314.post-1149278275519238672006-06-02T09:57:00.000-10:002006-06-02T09:57:00.000-10:00Rick, Thank you my friend for your always insightf...Rick, <BR/>Thank you my friend for your always insightful comment and your scrutiny of the ramifications of what is written as well as its eventual expression in action, thought and deed. <BR/>Goodlife.Robert Shapirohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834558788450735235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15435314.post-1149276368839199332006-06-02T09:26:00.000-10:002006-06-02T09:26:00.000-10:00Robert,You wrote:"but the mind can also hold opini...Robert,<BR/>You wrote:<BR/>"but the mind can also hold opinions that are so diametrically opposed to others that there is an attraction to proving one is right"<BR/><BR/>I think this is not only a grand statement of understanding, but a springboard for much thought. And now, I am thinking.<BR/><BR/>We do this so often don't we? We think we have to prove we are right when there is actually no consequence to another believing we are not.<BR/>A natural question is why do we feel that there is such a large consequence when none exists? An easy answer is that we do not believe strongly enough in what we say we believe.<BR/><BR/>But, I suspect there is more.....wonderful and thoughtful post.Sevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17643893888470966419noreply@blogger.com
