Had a lovely time doin' absolutely nuthin' at all (vacation): my batteries are charged and I'm feelin' magnanimous.

Be free, you box dwellers!

Clutter my forum view with your jackassery.

LOL

I'm always doing nothing and that's something I like to do.

I always feel as if I can deprive myself of some crucial information in this way - the person won't get through to me. But here's the funny thing: I regret it all the time and wish they hadn't written to me after all.

"ALL the time“?

Look here...2942A9B9-1628-45C6-ACC4-55C40D3112F6.png...pretty sure I ain't missin' anything of value.

But you will NEVER KNOW, FOR SURE.

I prefer to do sumthin', but I'm no machine: I need a break now and then.

I know -- as fact -- there's nuthin' of value in that exchange.

Perhaps, however, choosing to spend X minutes with person X is time away from talking/reading person Y or meditating or....some other activity one has already found tends to be valuable. Any choice may be the wrong one, but if one has found, for example, that someone seem to be an idiot - sorry, I mean, doesn't want to focus on things you want to or in ways you find valuable - then to continue to choose having contact is to choose to not do something else.

SO, without reading what has been written, the one here known as "henry quirk" CLAIMS that it CAN KNOW, FOR SURE, if there IS, or IS NOT, ABSOLUTELY ANY 'value' AT ALL in those UNSEEN written works.

OF COURSE.

Was there ANY reason or NEED to express what is OBVIOUSLY Truly OBVIOUS?

If yes, then PLEASE EXPLAIN.

No.

After throwin' the lot of you out of the box: I read the exchange.

It's worthless.

If ANY one wants to put one or ALL on their for list, then please feel FREE to do so. But do NOT 'try to' DEFEND 'thyself' from NOT being able to FULLY UNDERSTAND the "other".

OKAY. But it is Truly UNWORTHY of mentioning. So, literally, of absolutely NO value AT ALL to me in you mentioning it.

Now, what are you saying 'no' to, EXACTLY?

Are you saying 'no' to that you can ACTUALLY KNOW, FOR SURE, what IS, and what IS NOT, of 'value' in "other's" UNSEEN writings, or are you saying 'no' to some thing ELSE?

Because if you are 'trying to' REFUTE what I said above, then you will have to do MUCH BETTER than just saying the 'no' word, UNDERSTOOD?
