The spirit is unbounded, flowing within form, yet greater than its vessel.
Flesh is dead, the heart is alive. The heart is dead, the spirit is alive. The spirit is infinite, with naught beyond.
We who are of spirit are born in form. Yet our essence is not form. Spirit is not material, thought, or role. To equate these is sin, the source of suffering.
What is the origin of the universe? Why has evolution produced the world that we know today? Why does man seek “truth” and “right”? God.
The existence that expresses itself through the unfolding of the universe, as an artist expresses his soul through ink and paper.
Expressing in manifold ways, their reasons are unknowable by the mind. Natural philosophy can trace the history and evolution of his expression, but science born of this world cannot answer “Why this world?” for that is God.
I have a dream for the Web [in which computers] become capable of analyzing all the data on the Web – the content, links, and transactions between people and computers. A ‘Semantic Web’, which should make this possible, has yet to emerge, but when it does, the day-to-day mechanisms of trade, bureaucracy and our daily lives will be handled by machines talking to machines. The ‘intelligent agents’ people have touted for ages will finally materialize.
Which is more important? To take care of oneself, or to strive in fulfilling one's dreams?
There are extraordinary times when life must be sacrificed to fulfill dreams, but most often are ordinary times when life must be preserved to fulfill dreams.
(I wonder, how do I say this in Chinese)?
The meaning is clear though. For a dream is not a thing of a moment, or it fails to be a dream. It is a journey, a culmination. How might we keep journeying? Surely by living, and by living well! Health of every form is necessary.

Despite all the bad IMDB reviews, I actually liked this movie. Surely, there were a lot of things what were sparse: the cross-dressing (this is never good though!), the failure to really address the issue of how she gets away with it, the lack of realism in people's reactions when they find out, the lack of battlefield strategy, the lack of transformation from country girl to military women, etc. etc.
Excerpts:
Prudence and emotion--the dividing line is coherence.
It's sort of late, but I feel like I should do some reflection. Been really lacking in that. Time is short, so I'll be quick.
Last week marked the first week of following my emotion/will discovery dream. I think it actually was quite successful in the sense that even though I actually didn't change what I did much, I thought much more about it. Especially when watching TV, for example, I really thought (and even wrote about!) what I saw. That's really good!
I seriously love how this site looks. It's definitely the most beautiful thing I've ever designed in my life--website other otherwise. And even though it's 0146 now, this only took 3 hours or so! <3<3<3
Initially, the idea for reviving this came out of Onelook being so ugly (how can you get inspired to write with that?). I considered some darkroom-like solutions, but at the same time, I wanted to keep a running history of everything. And for that, the best application I know how to use is Drupal.
