Hi Rev. Shawn, Best wishes to you in finding a job. Your faith has nothing (directly) to do with the physical world. Keep things in perspective. Have you checked with the day labor companies in your area? Peace & Love!

Hi Rev. Campbell, In this case though I don't think Chuang Tzu would have been refering to the same kind of pearls as the ones in the story I presented. Hehehe. I know. But we had fun, didn't we? Peace & Love!

Hi Rev. Campbell, Nice story. Thanks for sharing. And so, a follow-up twist on the end of the story: In one of Chuang Tzu's stories he suggests that the pearls should be left in the waters and the jade should be left in the mountains. This is because when we start placing value on objects then everyone will desire to have some. Those who cannot buy them will steal them. Those without will lament that they have none. All this brings discontent to man's soul. It would be better to let them remain where they are and know that they will always be there whenever anyone wished to view them. Peace & Love!

Yeah, you should lighten up, Sweetheart. Take my love and send it out upon the seven seas of joy. Peace & Love!

I enjoy the free pizza but I also enjoy talking with the many free-spirited, open-minded members of this forum. Peace & Love!

And why not? Interesting, your post, as today's Taoist thought was: Every union is destined to be separated; every achievement is destined to be destroyed; every corner is destined to be flattened; every eminence is destined to be overthrown; every activity is destined to futility. Peace & Love!

Hehehe. Maybe your question should be a little more specific? Peace & Love!
