Becca's words of wisdom for the day: never try to bike home from LMBB after you've given blood. BAD IDEA. its so stupid of me...i got home, and tried to climb my stairs, but halfway up i fell over. Thankyou for nice neighbors who find you just in time. I can't believe i did that...especically since you can die from it.....so please...none of you do

lama yeshe would have lots to say about this need and want thing. i dont know how well i can repeat his point, but i think he would say that one only needs something when one is incomplete. tantra suggests that every being has the ability to be completely self sustained. everything you 'need' in someone else is what you already posess inside, but have yet to find.

in this way of looking at desires or needs, it would suggest that when we become a complete, whole being of our own, others will bring us pleasure and happiness, rather than the pressing and often dissatisfying feel of need.

meh
donno if that has anything to do with your post, but i think this is something i believe in greatly these days.
