Hello! I am a new member of Hypography.:Alien:

I was recommended by the infamous Turtle, with whom I've had the distinct pleasure of many enlightening conversations.:Alien:

I am humbled by the sheer amount of brain power and intellect contained within these electronic pages.:Alien:

I will strive to offer you the best of my 3 pounds of grey matter that is encased within a mere mortal body.

 

So without further ado, and a shout out to Turtle, here is my first nugget of wisdom I have the pleasure and privledge of sharing:

 

Usually people read because they want to know-

but the more you study the Tao, the less you want knowledge.

 

And as you want less and less, you come closer to not-doing.

Wu-wei- this is the way to get things done.

 

The best way to run the world is to let it take its course

- and to get yourself out of the way!

Ah, but how can I get out of the way of the world, when the world is in me, and I in it?

 

Welcome, Racoon. If you enjoy talking with Turtle, I’m confident you’ll enjoy talking with many of us here at hypography, and we with you!

Welcome, Welcome, Greetings & Salutations Racoon! Forgive my slow pace in responding to your shout. How perfectly wonderful it is to encounter you in this surprising manner. While it is possible other members know me personally - beak-to-beak so to speak -, none but you has ever asserted it. Moreover, inasmuch as the other members know me only by my writing & I know them by their writing only, it is quite the opposite for you & I.

___I have only ever read a very few things you wrote Racoon & now reading your posts is ever so an enlightening view I never witnessed. Mon dieu Racoon, mon dieu! :cup:

___As a point of interest to all & in accord with the honor due Racoon, other than myself & one other, Racoon is the only person in the World to have spun/spinned/worked/operated the Worlds Largest Diable/Khu I have in my hands in the photo of myself in my profile.

___Please do visit when you may Racoon & we'll make a little video of us working the Diable. Welcome again; good to see you here.:confused:

CraigD has been much more than could have been expected! :naughty:

 

I am gracious and heart-warming now to the fellow! :phones:

Thank you CraigD for all your wonderful and enlightening responses. :phones:

 

Thank you for taking the time. I have learned much.
