Everything matters; nothing is -sacred][sacred].[^1] This is the only way we can move forward: by moving -sideways. Life is a great big rugby game, and the entire field has to be run -for a goal. The fact that the beginning two verses of this chapter have the -same number of characters proves that they are a tautological pair, that is, -they *complete each other*. Sometimes life seems like a dog wagging its tail, -smiling up at you and wanting you to love it, just wanting that, simple simple -love, oblivious to the fact that it just ran through your immaculately groomed -flower garden and tracked all the mud in onto your freshly steamed carpet. -Life is not life in a suburb.

(By the way, Nirvana is thought to be - what a drop of water feels upon flopping into a lake---doesn't that - seem important? Doesn't it seem like a fish and a drop of water here - are connected? It helps, of course, that the fish represents Reality - here.) -- cgit 1.4.1-21-gabe81
