This is not the object of vice,
But merely a flavorful spice.
It comes from the bark of a tree
And is ground for food, savory.
It is the color of rust, tan.
For pumpkin pie, it's a must, man.
Even a dumb automaton
Knows that it's not cinnamon.

Hello. I am a mom of three young children (10, 8 and 2) moving out to San Francisco this summer from northern New Jersey with my husband and children. We are trying to decide where to live (my husband will be working in the SF financial district and can commute from either area). Can anyone please explain the cultural differences between these two areas? Will it be easier to make friends in one place or the other coming from the Northeast? I understand that there are good public schools in each area - you just have to research. I'm less concerned with the schools (we might also enroll in independent schools) than the general "tone" of the community and its openness to new neighbors since I understand some of these areas are rather "established." Thanks so much!!!!

Ok, this promotion is anything near fancy. I am just a receptionist, we just lost our exec admin asst. my boss. I received this email.

I would like to ask you if you would be able to take on additional tasks, and if you would be available to devote more time if needed. We would like to offer you the opportunity to advance within the company and take on additional responsibilities.

Please advise your thoughts.

Not sure what I should say, or do. It is a step up for me. My hourly rate is 10.50 an hour. I really thought I wanted the job, but now I am faced with insecurties and fear of failing the job. I know for many of you making 40k+ a year this isn't a really big deal. I would appreciate any help. Thank you

I am 15 and I know that I am in love with a girl. But, the amazing thing is that there are much more beautiful girls in the school (physically) but to me, she is the only girl i want to be with and she is the most beautiful and pretty.

There are much more dilligent and intelligent girls but still I only want her.

I love her and I want to protect her despite the fact that three months ago, I have told her my feeling and she said she just want to be friends.

Can anyone tell me how do I fall in love with her? Where does that feeling come from?

Arrived at the finished,
unfrightened, unblemished, free
of craving, he has cut away
the arrows of becoming.
This physical heap is his last.

Free from craving,
ungrasping,
astute in expression,
knowing the combination of sounds---
which comes first & which after.
He’s called a
last-body
greatly discerning
great man.

-Dhammapada, 351-352, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

Namaste

Peace and Love

I mean right through to the other end of the planet, and somebody jumped down it, how long would they be falling DOWN the way before they were falling UP the way. Surely once you fell past the centre of the earth every thing would be the other way up due to gravity?
