Does the Universe matter       with intent or does such an it simply do as it does.              Water nourishes all forms of life, without intent.       So may suggest a Taoist text. Utility of the useless       information waves, like a pebble in a pond, reach.              Without reaching a near to here, skipping stones       without being stoned, for the sake of its own,       one may own forms of knowledge ore knots.              >>> It's use is in the use I make of       >>> it. If I tell you, I gain no usefulness from any use you might make       >>> of it.              This morning, aye, learned how birds are more than lizards are said       to be dinosaurs on account of their hip bones are connected to their       thigh bones in the same Way. Semantics pertaining to extinction       varies and vary, depending on how a word is used changes       a meaning ever sewn slight a bit in horse's body-p'art.              >>if you don't tell it you get nothing and i get nothing       >       >So I do share what I have. Maybe you will get something.              Once upon a time there was one       and only one single cell. That very one       was the first one, naturally. Until it divided.              Now, trillions and trillions speak to each other using language,       some known only to their selves as if they had or were, selves.       Private languages vary, naturally, unless they are artificial ones.              At times, language flowers flower.       Consciousness flowers flower.              To suppose a necessity exists, that a knowledge flower needs       to be shared, on or off the plant or vine, one could. Yet to know       how the flower flowering for no reason, as one simply does, and       is not separate from an entire universe one may sail to see how       an it is the universe its own self that flowers.              - being pointless ... given: aWay ...              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
