From WWR

More about me than you probably wanted to know

Hey! I'm 57, a graphic designer/copy editor on disability ... creeping crud ... MS or Lyme or something, could be the same thing. I'm working on it, and getting better. One daughter, 27, who likes R&B. Gardener, quiltmaker, writer, harmony singer, cook (see Quick Bread for the Wheathead). Perverse sense of humor.

I live in Louisville, Kentucky, smack dab in the old part of the city, a mile from the Ohio River. The pollution is getting to me so I'm moving back to the woods this year, or after the house sells.

I found WWR in a search out of boredom for something besides Folk Alley and Grassy Hill. I am now very proud to call myself a Wheathead! And I have wheatberries!

Poem for my mother, Evelyn Florence Buddle Burton, May 28, 1918 – Aug. 6, 2008

A DEATH HAS OCCURRED

A death has occurred and everything is changed.
We are painfully aware that life
can never be the same again, that yesterday is over,
that relationships once rich have ended.
But there is another way to look upon this truth.
If life now went on the same,
without the presence of the one who has died,
we could only conclude that the life we remember
made no contribution, filled no space, meant nothing.
The fact that this person left behind a place
that cannot be filled
is a high tribute to this individual.
Life can be the same after a trinket has been lost,
but never after the loss of a treasure.

Paul Irion

Good quotes

It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it. — Lou Holtz

If you can forget both clamor and silence, you will surely understand the simultaneous realization of the absolute and the relative. — Lin-ch'uan

• Don't wish for perfect health. In perfect health, there is greed and wanting. So an ancient said, "Make good medicine from the suffering of sickness."

• Don't hope for life without problems. An easy life results in a judgmental and lazy mind. So an ancient once said, "Accept the anxieties and difficulties of this life."

• Don't expect your practice to be clear of obstacles. Without hindrances the mind that seeks enlightenment may be burnt out. So an ancient once said, "Attain deliverance in disturbances." — Zen Master Kyong Ho [ 1849-1912], in Thousand Peaks

I never did give anybody hell. I just told the truth and they thought it was hell. — President Harry S. Truman

Ninety per cent of the diseases known to man are caused by cheap foodstuffs. You are what you eat. — Victor Lindlahr, nutritionist

The past does not repeat itself, but it rhymes. — Mark Twain

Today's horoscope for Aries: You'll enjoy a surge of power today, which could cause some problems with one of your relationships -- this person thought they were the one in charge, and it's going to be a bit painful for them to face reality, today. Handle this potentially tense situation by anticipating their objections. They are going through a bit of paranoia, and it's wisest for you not to play into it. So don't rush to defend yourself about what they're saying. They will come around eventually. Looks like a 4 wheatberry day for you dear Aries.
