There are two things that should be noted: the “Food & Wine” posts don’t show on the Main Page, and the same is true for the “Health News.” You need to go to the Headers that run across the top of the main page to access them.

Okay

Two people have already told me that my wine list is indicative of a serious level of alcoholism – although an alchie with exquisite taste. So while the blatant diagnosis of “alcoholic” won’t be directly denied, I will amend it by saying that those particularly beautiful wines were savoured over the last year and a half. Does that mitigate the situation at all?

I will post more about the individual wines as time permits…

A great quote

Monday, September 10th, 2007 | 2 Comments

“The man who, being really on the Way, falls upon hard times in the world will not, as a consequences, turn to that friend who offers him refuge and comfort and encourages his old self to survive. Rather, he will seek out someone who will faithfully and inexorably help him to risk himself, so that he may endure the suffering and pass courageously through it, thus making of it a “raft that leads to the far shore.” Only to the extent that man exposes himself over and over again to annihilation, can that which is indestructible arise within him. In this lies the dignity of daring. Thus the aim of practice is not to develop an attitude which allows a man to acquire a state of harmony and peace wherein nothing can ever trouble him. On the contrary, practice should reach him to let himself be assaulted, perturbed, moved, insulted, broken and battered- that is to say, it should enable him to dare to let go his futile hankering after harmony, surcease from pain, and a comfortable life in order that he may discover, in doing battle with the forces that oppose him, that which awaits him beyond the world of opposites.
