Hell, once again, I think you get...Thanks, Genkaku,<br />Hell, once again, I think you get a gold medal for your musings, Brotherman. <br /><br />I actually did some dictionary crawling today and discovered that in the Greek world, everyone had genius! It was that core of each individual that was the Divine. Genius wasn't just the gold medal stellar intellectual apparatus that we label as such today. It was Universal. Solid gold.<br /><br />I then discovered that the word genial came from the same root. (the root word was apparently the Greek God of Sociability as well)<br /><br />I know that "no soul" is a teaching in traditional Buddhism, but I think each of us, individually, do deserve that Gold Star for our time as shooting stars. At least that's what this flash in the pan is feeling at the moment.<br /><br />Looking further, looking for the Golden Mean-ing of it all? <br />it seems that we each ARE that Gold Star. <br /><br />Or maybe not.<br /><br />A Gassho and a Grin,<br />Lance<br />Lance Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18174480565578669357noreply@blogger.com
