And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. 
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.

“Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force. Mourn them do not. Miss them do not. Attachment leads to jealously. The shadow of greed, that is.”

Food For Thought                 1995                                   `~~~~  myself

 

I once knew a man who knew all that was to be said.

He had all the worldly knowledge mesmerized in his head.

But no one was interested nor would partake in his verbal bread.

So when the tides of life turned, they rushed to his bed,

but it was to late to reap the fruits of wisdom, for the old man was dead.

Most all have heard the proverbial epic of  “the wise old owl”

yet our tongues kept on spouting, as if in a mindless prowl.

Tis why life is so difficult for our young ones to learn

And so it goes, we make the same mistakes, when it comes our turn.

“Man surprised me most about humanity. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.  Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he ...is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.” - Dalai Lama

"Information should be free."
 
Attributed in many forms, to many sources, but said to have been specifically uttered by Peter Samson, legendary Tech Model Railroad Club at MIT circa 1959 and by Stuart Brand, founder of Whole Earth Catalog, in 1984, at the first "Hackers Conference" (hacker meant programmer, in those days).
