is movement from moment to moment The "silly question" is the first intimation of

to sit around so much doing nothing, really doing nothing. Sit down before fact as a little child, be prepared

energized, and balanced. "The universe is full of magical things, patiently waiting
for our wits to grow sharper."
"The capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention."
"I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery than live in a
world so small that my mind could comprehend it."
"A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving."
"Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart."
"Being on the tightrope is living; everything else is waiting. "

Feels at each thread, and lives along the line."
