  Blogging as escapism

I now realize why I had a sudden interest in yoga blogging -- it gave me a good excuse for holding off on doing my taxes this year. I always think of Federal tax returns as a disquieting time, stressful and bitter. Part of the resistance is that I do not keep my records up to date so I have to go back and reconstruct the year so that I can recall my deductions, expenses and other details. Also the tax treatment given U.S. residents working at the Organization of American States is far from straightforward. It took me five years just to get a handle on it. Well, I am down to the last weekend so there's no wiggle room now. So blog entries will be minimal until I get done.

I thrive when exploring new realms of knowledge and experience.

"The eye through which I see God is the same eye through which God sees me; my eye and God's eye are one eye. One seeing, one knowing, one love."
         — Meister Eckhart

"Life is like a ten-speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use."

"You become a writer by writing. It is a yoga."
         — R.K. Narayan, Indian writer

Men cannot see their reflection in running water, but only in still water.
        — Chuang Tzu, philosopher (c. 4th century BCE)

Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
