Floating

[Amelia]

...Still, though... a lot of words...

[arthus]

How many is a lot?

[Amelia]

A lot

Gassho oneesan,
Hajimemashite (Nice to meet you)

Though I don't know 'A lot',
I fear we are "like planting seeds on stone".

And though I don't know what's out there,
We could take a look.

Hey Arthus,

Do you always talk like this? I mean, when you are in Starbucks, does your order go ...

The days flow, varying, from rapids to a trickle, and back.

What size?

Though I don't know 'A lot',
I fear we are "like planting seeds on stone".

Whipped cream?

Every wave and swell is death incarnate, or is it the ego-death?


Or maybe you just don't go to Starbucks.


Gassho, J

[arthus]

Haha. Well struck, though they usually set the rules with 'what drink can I start for you?' And wham! Mud-dy.

Verbosity, while practically useful, is still murky and the cause of confusion. Trying to explain colors to the lifelong blind.

So a 'mocha with an extra shot' is ordered and received, just try to stay afloat. Using whatever pieces can be found.

Admittedly still working on sitting between the 'two iron mountains'.


TL; DR Yes Arthus is strange, he talks like this to those who listen. And to build some sweet mud forts with friends.

I'm sure you have a beautiful range of vocabulary, but load a sentence up with too many words and it becomes hard to understand. I'm not having an easy time figuring out what it is you want to say, Arthus, if anything in particular.

[arthus]

Hit the nail on the head methinks. Just a pig in mud.

So nothing, in particular.

New guy testing the waters, floating and bumping into things.

Appreciate you humoring a bloke.

Can you read something without feeling the need to reply? We'll see.

That was wisdom Dosho - and speaking for myself I still haven't got the impulse under control !

It is nice to meet.
And while the winds gust, brother,
two lips will blow too.

Have we figured out why Bodhidharma came from India yet?

Some say he wanted to bring true buddhism to china because it had gone to their heads.
