hello...so nice to have stumbled across this website of people w/ like minds. I hope to make some new friends here and maybe stumble across some of my old ones...peace to all **************** helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby, awaiting a word... gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirits she runs, wishing she could fly... only to trip at the sound of goodbye ***************
Hey Wrldzen, Zen as in, "Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintenance?" Welcome Sister, cool handle Let me extend the welcome mat. I recently found "The Hip Forums" myself and I know what it’s like to be a newcomer. You don’t really know what to say or how to act. Read some of the threads so you can get the gist of what topics are being discussed. When you feel comfortable jump right in and get your feet wet. Nobody here is going to "Flame" you, that just isn’t tolerated here. From what I’ve found so far is that we are one big family with many brothers and sisters. Once again the doors open come on in, open up your heart and mind, kick back and stay awhile.
Hey Steve...the tan is from gardening & being outside. Summers are short in MI, gotta take advantage of the nice days! What are flipforums? & what would you like to know? Seems my profile has much more information then yours. Like where are you from? age?pictures?

Thanks so much for the heartfelt welcome Steffan...also a thanks to Calista...y'all make me feel so welcome...ahhhhh
such an interesting and informative response Void. We have something in common. I, too was born in the year of Disneyland and McDonalds <smile> People often tell me I look younger then my years, such a compliment. Unfortunately I am not as well versed in Buddhism as I should be.I have too many interests and not enough time. I have a bunch of books though and winter is coming... Presently, music is my religion...it brings me such enjoyment,enlightenment and peace. @*@*@*@ the secret in singing is found between the vibrations in the singer's voice and the throb in the hearer's ear...
GARDEN ENLIGHTENMENT (by Elizabeth Gips) I look at the books that I should want to read about gnostics and mystics and doing good deeds and vibrational health and losing my greed. But the cosmos in my garden is going to seed. I grieve for the things that I may never know that are all written wisely to help me to grow: the words of the prophets could undo my woe if only the marigolds wouldn't self sow. There's sickly snapdragons all going to rust the aphids make love with aphidian lust; the cucumber's wilted, the soil has a crust so the books of the sages are covered with dust. Oh, here's to the tomes that I never will read, may their knowledge fall into my head and take seed; help me stretch to enlightenment some other way for my garden is calling me outside to play.
