Toxic_Kisses How did you do your hair, or should I say Skull?
A sky so grand, is it lasting or w/ paint? How did you do such an amazing work of skill on ur skull? And sky color parts of ur hair that hang down, will it wash out or stay until grown out? If so how do you get it to stay? I wish to do my hair a color witch doth not wash away.

Toxic_Kisses I don't think I ever lived
I simply seem to exist taking up space and oxygen.
Don't get me wrong I want to live
It's definitely one of my goals it just doesn’t seem to have happened yet.
Mmmmm, that makes it sound like I WaItInG for something to just *BaM* suddenly happen, but that’s not true, I try to make things happen, I try to experience thing, and yet the more I try the farther away I seemed to be pushed (like reaching out ur hand to something you think is in your grasp only to have it some how just pulled away @ the last moment) but worry not that hasn’t kept me from trying again, maybe one of these days I'll get it right. After all to die w/o really ever having lived is one of my biggest phobias.

2] I dont work as of now, but have saved up some 'reserve' reverse cash flows, uni is all payed for, as well as, 'sort of' getting paid to attend uni, from various moneys left over from grants, awards, Phi Eta Sigma, high GPA's, deans list, etc. etc. etc.

3] Prior to & during some of college, i was a youth advisor through, St. Lukes Hospitol, within an HIV/AIDS prevention & education org.

pralines&cream Dear Mahayana,

These answers are pretty personal, so feel free to say "no comment." Every few blathes I think I know the answers to these questions, and then every few more blathes I become confused again. Here are my questions:

1. Are you a male or female?
2. Of what sexual orientation are you?

If you don't want to answer, 's okay; I was just wondering because my image of you is never quite solid.

Mahayana Dearest PC,

These answers [are] pretty personal, but since I view you as such a wonderful individual I feel completely comfortable letting you know.

Here are my answers:

2. Of what sexual orientation are you?
[{a straight lesbian}]

If you don't want to read, 's okay; I was just sharring because i dont want my image of myself to never quite solid.

Photophobe Though I respect your writing, and find a lot of what you say useful (and occasionally insightful - which is all we can hope for, really), your use of grammars, your parsing and you odd usage of (bracket) [parenthesis] and {other dooby} make your stuff really hard to penetrate. 020420

Photophobe Typography is my major, btw.

If you're making patterns, fine, but type is designed to read.

Sorry. Visual world comment got under my skin a little. I'm not criticising - just commenting that I wish I could penetrate (i never permeate) the wall of text that is your writing sometimes.

If I didn't enjoy what I could digest, then I wouldn't give a shit, yeah? :)
020420
...
Mahayana typography is [[[not]]] one of my two majors by the way[sides], if everyone judged the world through their major, things would get pretty chaotic & nothing would ever get done wed be too busy trying to justify why our major should be the authority on this or that

my type is designed to do what eva the heck & hell i want-wish it to do, & what eva the heck & hell {it} wants-wishs to do no matter if its patterns, a mess, nothing, everything

i disagree with you ...some type [is] designed to be merely looked at & not read esp within the avant garde/ experimental worlds [which happens to be one of my majors genres]

and i am not sorry but i do not create for others... criticizing or not... it makes no difference to me, nothing is going to change ... if one minute i want to use {[)/? i shall and if the neXt fleeting sec i want to use {{{[{ i also shall- this is the way of sass
i do not create so that others may penetrate "walls-halls-orbackalleys of text" or not... it just is what it just is

[{say what you want- think what you think for i do not wish to change that... however i just dont give a labias rip about typography, spelling, conventionalisms, in box-isms}]

Photophobe I wasn't claiming that my major should be the authority on anything. I was telling you because I am into typography into a big way, and so that would obviously make the theoretical perspective and frame of reference within my comments more clear, as type was mentioned.

I'm sorry if you feel I shouldn't judge the world through my major - but I can't help it. We all layer multiple frames of reference over everything we say and do, so I don't see how using one that you're informed about could be all that bad.

I felt that you might find this (my major) information useful when, and if, you replied. You might now, but it didn't exactly take a year to type it.

Ok, I retract my statement about type being designed to be read. This font in particular is, but whatever. Not all houses are designed to give shelter, either.

Anyway, whatever. Sorry to comment on your writing. Didn't realise you'd have such a thin skin.

Still attempting to friendly dispite your brutal response.
020421
...
Photobot 3rd paragraph - you might now= you might not 020421
...
Mahayana i by no means said nor did i believe that you shouldn’t or cannot judge the world through your major, all i am saying is that if you have any preconceived notions about what my eXpressions [and or type] should or shouldn’t be- that this is not much of any distress to me- not because im boorish, or ill-mannered, or thin skinned- all i am saying is- yes, i hear what you had to say ... but just as you said your peace i wanted to say my own peace... which basically was and still is ... that i don’t care if not a single soul can read my expressions on blather nor can not decode them

[[I do not blather for anyone nor any reason but myself, if someone else can gather something from my blathers- that’s wonderful- if not- well im sorry but that is not why I blatherso I can to some extent understand your comments on my eXpressionshowever, it truly doesn’t matter to me- im not a writer- a novelist- a typographer- linguist etc etc etc]]

[[[just out of inquisitiveness what was your reasoning [if there indeed was any particular one] behind your initial comments???- im curious- did you in some manner anticipate that perhaps upon reading your comments that id discover something I wasn’t aware of and thusly would consider changing my styleim not being vindictive or discourteous hereim actually quite interested in what your frame of contemplation was upon your blathering]]]

I really do not deem my response as automatically making me thin skinned I just don’t agree with you- & i said so- & without making use of character criticism or whatnot i don’t mind if you comment on my eXpressions- at all, or anything else for that matter- for this is blather and anyone can truly and rightfully say anythinghowever, just as well understand that the door swings both ways & that i was merely observing/commenting back- and this does not necc. default me towards having thin skin

moreover, perhaps im sightless or subjective but i really did not perceive my response as brutal- it was actually far-off from being brutal, cruel, wicked, and/or vicious
im really not an evil person at all, and very rarely can i go there- even merely in thoughts- even if i had to- id rather witness people supporting each other & celebrating each others positives rather than focusing on negatives

god hey yana, please do me a favor and slap unhinged on the ass. tell her it's from god. 020713
...
Mahayana dear god,[oh wait *gets on knees with prayerful hands*]

since you are all powerful, and everywhere all at once, shouldnt you be able to slap unhingeds *aheam* ass all by yourself... what does this now mean that you are coming to me for help--have you been demoted & have i now been promoted? :)

even if i 'could' slap unhingeds ass-
i wouldnt for these reasons:

1]that would have to involve me first looking at her ass to line up and ensure proper hand-eye coordination, and thusly contact of hand and ass. i have yet to have looked at her ass, nor think it would be proper of me to do so

2]i think it would really 'really' shock the hell out of unhinged if i were to do such a thing

3]i really do not think it would be proper to partake in such an activity for the sake of others- i mean afterall satan is watching and 'is' only steps away from taking my soul from me -
so i bess be on good behavior, at all times

so in conclusion god, sorry i can not slap unhingeds ass, or anyone else's ass-for that matter, and i do hope that this will not be used against me when i die

PS sorry about taking your name in vein last week- it was a stressful time

in the name of the mother, the daughter, and the sewn up spirit ....
AMEN!

i don't know if i would have been all that shocked by yana doing that, but after meeting her, i think she is too sweet to ever raise a hand to anyone or anything.

you are the first movement

ancient forms,

monastic life,

have you reached individual saintliness? hopefully not... for extinction at the end of your life has not yet occured- or perhaps it would play for a rather interesting conversation on just how you are communicating with us- but i suppose to wonder is to take away your mystery and ancient form
030417

Mahayana Just in case anyone wanted to know.

Question: How did I do on that majorly huge final?

Answer: 100%- nothing wrong- only person in class to do so, and might I add only woman in the class as well *winks* :]

definitely something i don’t want amnesia about

Mahayana Thank you for your more than generous words TK, i think sometimes you forget just how wonderfully amazing you are yourself sweetie ...

it always seems as if those who strive for such beauty are those who really arent the ones who need to at all ...

[please forgive me for my lack of passion or depth in my words right now, my head is sort of out of the clouds and its hard to form any coherent let alone, expressive words]

youre such a compassionate woman Tk, and i know youll have such great coming-arounds in your life for that truly beautiful quality

much love, success, and happiness to you TK my good thoughts and wishings are with you my dear
030920

TK Don’t apologize or feel need to explain yourself to me, I never want more then you can give.
Please don't ever feel the need to entertain me w/ imaginative pretty words bc they mean nothing to me if it's not truly what the inner most core of you is thinking/feeling.
You always have meant more to me then fluffy pretty words and you always will.

Bespeckled I didn't want to ask you this on blather (I'm not even sure you will see this), but as I cannot find an email address for you, I really have no other choice if I need to get in touch with you.

1) I'm very sorry for the recent turn of events. I believe you are a beautiful person, with a beautiful heart and soul and pure, honest intentions. I think the blather journey book was a wonderful idea, and the fact that you remained so patient and steadfast in your dedication to it speaks a lot about you as an individual (in a very good way, dear). It was saddening and a blow to the blather world when you uttered those all too final words: "having said that, this is my last blather," and did not write anything afterward. It's enough to make me wonder and worry whether you really will stay away and never return again. If you do, I wish you all the best in your future endeavors and I mourn the loss of a true blatherskite.

2) And now getting down to less personal matters ... Before you left, you said that you would send the journey book on to the next person on the list, which, as far as I know, is myself. As far as I know, you do not have my current Boston address. I don't know if, in removing yourself from blather (which, despite your words, I hope is only temporary), you have also decided to not send on the book. If you have decided to halt the journey book journeying, I understand; I have considered it your book all along, and if anybody has a right to keep it at the end of the line, it is you. But for now, I hope and pray that that is not the case, as I anxiously await its arrival ... someday, sometime, somehow ... if not to make my own contribution, just to leaf through its pages, as I've been waiting for what seems so long to do.

I suppose the ball is in your court now, dear. If you'd like to get in touch with me, my email address is Aphrodite7717@yahoo.com (or Aphrodite7717@hotmail.com), and you can also find me on AIM all day long under Aphrodite7717.

If I don't hear from you, well, you already know what I think. I will always hold you in highest regards, as a free spirit, a free thinker and the kind of human that was truly intended to grace this world.

Have a wonderful life, mahayana.

I hope to hear from you soon.

hello . 040311

girl_jane Mahayana-what happened to you...? 040422
...
Mahayana [What happened to me]

I often ask myself this very same question, what happened to the loving person I used to think I was, the one that would be desired for a loving relationship [the sad thing is ... i dont know what has happened to me]. I used to view myself as someone with great potential to love and be loved but in lue of recent events that have transpired within my life, Im not so sure of this anymore. Im not so sure of anything anymore, and just when i was beginning to have true confidence in myself-- it has all been stripped away-- down to bare nothingness.

[so what has happened to me]

ive cried, died a little, wished for former times, I was shattered, broken, lied to and deceived, ive been inducted into two national honor socities, im continually excelling in my studies, i found myself and lost her again, im slowly suffocating in many ways, [what happened to me ... good question] Does anyone know?

I havent been here in so long - I feel like a stranger within my own words
040423
...
girl_jane Welcome back. I'm sure, if you want to, you'll find your space here again. You carved it out so well during your last stay, it probably only needs to be swept and dusted a bit. 040423
...
magicforest Sans doute, tu es ici pour adorer, Mahayana... 040423
...
Mahayana Pardon my lack of knowledge about what you have said magicforest; however, it is french ....correct...? that you speak and you have mentioned something about me being there to adore, undoubtedly, I think I am way off on that translation. but i thank you for your words -- ive always held a special place in my heart for foreign languages, there’s something so enchanting that goes on in trying to reach out and communicate with other languages. 040423
...
Mahayana girl_jane,

Thank you for your heartfelt words and for even remembering me to ask what had happened to me. I miss this place even though I had left on rather impolite terms—blather was always my safety net and now that i find myself falling againive found comfort in these words, in the people that leave their impressions here, and in blather’s company… [i cant believe im crying right now] anyhowsomeday everything in life will make sense and perhaps if im allowed to do so i shall share what i have learned with othersin hopes that life will be all that much more beautiful to themand less painful... to me than all of this would have all been worth something-- all the suffering and crying ive done... all the hard lessons and all the pain ive caused others will not have been in selfish vein-ness

hopefully there’ll still be space left here for me although i truly do not feel worthy of any allotment … thank you for your welcome backit means more than you could ever realize, not just to my eyes but my souls very fabric

Mahayana to anyone ive ever pissed off and/or hurt here ... im sorry im such a horrible person sometimes, please forgive me -- so that i may also learn to forgive myself 040423

People never give themselves the love they deserve.

It's all right, Mahayana. All of it.

Your personal Arahantship floats around you.

Jenna me too. 040423
...
Mahayana Thank you nomme [not that this matters but my nickname is High School was Nome-- everytime i read your name i reminisce about all the fond memories i had there --just thought id share]. Nomme, ive never gotten the chance to appreciate your writing style here but it has always intrigued me, please keep on contributing-- it is appreciated.

and Jenna (great big hugs) my goodness I havent bumped into you in ages, how the hell are you --god i miss ya girl-- and our late late night companionship of insomnia, writing, and beating each other our for the word associations [gage me with a spoon] Dont be a stranger here missy -- its not the same without you here.

magicforest, i do not think i ever would be worthy enough to attain Arahantship; however, what a blessing it would truly be to reach such a level in life... i treasure the fact that you even know of the beauty that is in this word Arahantship.
040424
...
magicforest Stop condemning yourself. You are in no position and have no such right to do such a thing. If you think that you are worthless...you aren't, I can tell you that, but you certainly are a terrible judge of self-worth. My god, people act as though pain is a plateau, but it really isn't. When do you ever lay your burdens down and rest? How do you ever catch your breath when you run and run yourself sick?

Don't you see how perfect you are already, Mahayana?




wishes she could melt the broken

dosquatch _ hasn't been around in almost five days now. Does anybody know if (she?) is alright? 040525

Mahayana Yes, I'm alright...
thank-you for your concern

i had been out of town for several days [went to see my girlfriend (which i met on blather over 2yrs and 3months ago) graduate from vassar college, meet her family for the first time, unpacked her dorm room and then we drove back home together for over 14 hours --from NY to WI] and once we got back i had to unpack and cram for one of two finals which i had taken yesterday and now i am onto the cramming for this Saturdays final.

Mahayana Hinayana (Sanskrit: "inferior vehicle"; Chinese:小乘, Xiǎochěng; Japanese: Shōjō) is a term coined by the Mahayana, which appeared publicly around the 1st century CE. There are differing views on the use and meaning of the term, both among scholars and within Buddhism.

[Etymology]

The Monier-Williams Sanskrit-English Dictionary (Oxford, 1899), gives a translation of 'Hinayana' as:

Proper Noun: "simpler or lesser vehicle. Name of the earliest system of Buddhist doctrine (opposite to Mahayana; see Yana).".

However, according to Pali text society, the word hina in sanskrit and pali has much derogatory meaning.

Hina : 1.inferior, low; poor, miserable; vile, base, abject, contemptible, despicable 2. deprived of, wanting, lacking

Correct word for the term "lesser" is "Culla" or in Sanskrit "Ksulla=ksudra"

Culla & cula : small, minor (opp. maha great, major)

Mahayana Jane, i am sorry that i am no longer in NY as well -- it would have been nice to have met you. but perhaps someday i shall return for a visit. Do you permanently reside within NY?

Mahayana Toxic_Kisses!

I've just come across your message now. :)

I think about you as well especially when I visit blather and come across your words and contributions to our beautiful blue world.

There is always enough time to be as brave as one wants to be. Just take risks in small steps. Do things that you wouldn't normally attempt to do. And celebrate those attempts no matter how seemingly small. Also give yourself credit for all the wonderful things that you do now that does take some amount of courage.

I am the happiest I have been in a really long time - even despite having some health complications. :) You are still on my mind and in my heart as well TK. I hope life has been good to you.

Thank you for sharing your kind words with me. What a blessing they are.
