I aspire to be a man who lives each day for the sake of being alive and enjoying it
I don't want to be an irresponsible lazy bum or a bitter cold person filled with fear and hatred.

The philosophy of Being is simply to be who you are... and that is done in stillness.
It is from an ancient monastic tradition, and is explained rather nicely in the free on line source, Gospel Enigma. Find it at New Free Books.

I aspire to be...me. To wake each morning and appreciate each new day for what it is. I strive to see clearly, the what, where, when and why of my own existence, and how I can live in balance with others around me. A good mom, a good wife, a good grandmother, a good ME.
I will not be...typical. Hum-drum, controlled or controlling....part of the crowd, a conformer, a sheep.

Unto thine own self BE true,
It follows then,as night does follow day, thou canst not then be false to any other man.

I believe even though we can feel and see. Everything is just a illusion created by our creator. To test out what god has created.
