Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» The unsmarts are very often very smart. The very smart often aren't. Is this the Universe's way of balancing things?
The EAST has sand paintings that take artists months to create and the ZEN preists make these pictures and then walk through a part of the design just to mess it up. That is the surrender to the eternal change of any permanence being a LIE.
Another way of putting it: The EGO makes things up. The EGO tells us we are smart, we are not smart. So, the EGO or (SATAN?) gets a trouncing when the EGO thinks it is in charge of any outcome.
WE DO NOT KNOW SQUAT. We can only think, wait, pray and advance after careful consideration that the world could disappear at any moment. IT COULD. We need to realize this. This is not permanent. WE DIE.
Everything must be considered from this vantage point. Whether we believe in an afterlife or not.
Thank you for a very thoughtful and thought-provoking reply Sharon. I love it when "the average person" bests a bigshot smarta**! Maybe I have a mean streak in me but I surely do love to witness a comeuppance! From day to day I keep not believig what's going on. It is as if I am simply witnessing a weird play that is unbelievable in every way yet it contunues on with sporadic applause and cheers while in the background people are weeping. Bizarre doesn't begin to describe it. :(

It truly is like all the zombie movies we have NEVER watched. Meaning they were so boring, I never bothered. AND NOW? We are living in this nightmare that should be TOO INSANE FOR ANY MOVIE and yet? Here we are. All of us mystified as to how this can be, why it is happening, and why it is not stopping? I sound evil myself when I say WHY HASN'T ANYONE ASSASSINATED HIM? I mean it stands to reason that this would be a weekly attempt by someone. HE IS LOATHED. And yet? Supposedly 90 percent of Republicans like him? LIKE HIM? Who is even left to claim they are Republicans?
Even Barbra Bush said in her book that she divorced herself from the Republican Party at the end of her life. BARBRA BUSH for GODSAKES gave up being a Republican. because of TRUMP.
Certainly many former Republicans have moved away from calling themselves that because Don has tainted it and crippled it and shamed it so very badly. Will "Republican" ever come back to its former glory? Will America survive the demonic grip that Don don has on it? Tune in tomorrow. Sigh. I'm gonna ask! Thank you for your reply! :)
Role Playing Games break it down into 2 statistics: 1 - Intelligence. You could say this is a person's "book knowledge". 2 - Wisdom. You could say this is a person's "street knowledge" or "common sense".
A well-rounded character needs both ... but some professions need more of one or the other.
The purpose of role playing is to put yourself in someone else's shoes. Right Walt? How do you do that when your feet don't fit the shoes? Thank you for your reply. I shall ask.
