Breathtaking: Just Weird

Picking up from my previous entry, this had some very amusing implications.

Okay, so here I was listening to a selection from one of the audio talks I like to hear, and starting to argue with the teacher. I’m thinking I know so much more now than she does, and I’m disagreeing.

Then, ‘wait a sec.’ I thought. ‘If there is no “I,” then, who am I talking to? Why am I setting up this conflict with myself?'

Hmm. Let’s see. Some say talking to yourself is the first sign of madness, could this be the second sign? You know, arguing with yourself? LOL

Oh my!

So, this is me, finally going mad, is it?

Meanwhile, the teacher has moved on to talking about the volunteer work she has been doing, and how it has been benefiting her, and at this point I think I was really losing it, because I was thinking, ‘Gee, isn’t that nice of her to do all this to benefit myself?’ And then, as she’s talking more about herself, and how her experiences with others cause her to react, I’m thinking, ‘Wow, myself is self-centred!’ and laughing some more. At that point I had to stop and write this down before “I” lost it forever; hence confirming my point, about myself’s self-centredness. LOL (Rolls eyes)

This is probably a load of rot, but it sure is fun. It seems a crack opened up in the clouds, and all sorts of laughter came out. I shall enjoy it while it lasts, as I expect I’ll be just as blind again soon, and wondering what this nonsense was all about, then it’s back to practice, practice, practice, until another little sliver of light breaks through the gloom.

But if I could just let go of it, then maybe I could break through too.
