I am so unbelievably jealous. The only thing I miss about the Ontario weather is the thunderstorms...I have seen/heard lightning/thunder TWICE since arriving here, and on both of those occasions it was only a single clap and that was all. I miss the end of the summer, laying on the pool deck on "thunder watch" because we've had to close down for the afternoon because of the weather...I miss driving on the highway when there's lightning all around me. Oh sob sob sob. I want to go home!

I MISS YOU TOO, SISTER!! We are coming to visit on the 28th, I think. But that is far away. Too bad Catherine wasn't born on this day 12 years ago.

If the ultimate divine, which is pure mind/thought/consciousness, a.k.a. 'Brahman' according to Hindu philosophy, did not exist neither would you. This is because your existence is dependant on mind, where mind is dependant on thought i.e. you. The very thought which comprises the ultimate devine you speak of. Since you probably put some thought into your words, it is fair to say that you think and consequently do exist. So, my point is... It is that saddness is non-existence.

it sounds like you've got things pretty well figured out. i am glad that, at least according to you (and possibly descartes), i exist. this is reassuring. except that maybe i am not reassured, because if sadness is non-existence and i sometimes feel sad, then i must not exist at those times? even if my sadness is a result of thinking too much? i don't think that i completely understand. this is why i can't take philosophy courses.

clearly the "bumbling idiot" here is not you (because it is me!)! thank you for your comment, though, gavin's nice friend.

Ok, what I should have said was that not existing is sadness. Sorry for the confusion. Dont worry about not existing when you feel sad though because your sadness requires thought. I just felt like you were feeling you were non existant. It made me feel sad at the thought of you not existing at all.
