Suggested best solution was a Mccain answer like: “I know a whole lot more now than when I was 46!”

However the best Obama answer would perhaps have been: Expect the unexpected...

But as we know, there are no objective right or best answers in Zen questions, they collapse your life.....

There is no such thing as a free credit crunch

The best way to find meaning at work? Don’t look for it !

2008-06-11T15:02:00.000-07:00

We start to demand that our work has a larger meaning.
This almost always ends badly. Meaning is a bit like happiness - the more you go out looking for it, the less you find -.

Or as Lucy Kellaway states:

The best way to find meaning at work?
Don’t look for it”

As soon as you give it all up, you can have it all"

To keep your balance You must keep moving

There's so much you can learn from a bike....

On the long term the body reflects the mind, on the short term it's the other way around.
Like in the next quote:

When running up a hill, it is all right to give up as many times as you wish -- as long as your feet keep moving..

Your mind is like a parachute. It only works if it is open.

2008-02-02T06:25:00.000-08:00

Never feel dissapointed so that you'll never have to say: "I used to have an open mind.."

Needing someone is like needing a parachute. If he isn't there the first time you need him, chances are you won't be needing him again.

The world is like a mirror..Smile and your friends smile back.

Break the ice, with love...

Where can you go?

I'm nobody. Nobody is perfect. Therefore I'm perfect.

2007-12-15T00:24:00.000-08:00

We're all 'perfect' by nature.
Learn to 'want what you get', by failing in 'getting what you want'.

Avoid life, it kills you in the end
