First Post

Welcome to my new untitled blog about stuff.

I've had blogs in the past about different things but I seem to change so dynamically, I had just created a whole new one to cover anything and everything, without constraints.

So, today.  I am behind on my study and really need to stop blogging and get my assignment submitted.  It's on the respiratory system.  I also have to complete my case study on asthma and do some additional reading (a lot of additional reading), and most scarily I need to prepare for my online lecture tomorrow morning so when I get asked questions in front of the entire, very smart, class, I will have something to say other than "I'm sorry, I don't know", thus precipitating a spiral of self-doubt and self-questioning over my suitability for a career in medicine.

Anyway, I read this quote on my friends Facebook page this morning and I think it belongs to the Dalai Lama.  I love it so much I'm reposting it out to the universe.




Whether the glass is half full or half empty is actually irrelevant, the undeniable fact that the glass and its content simply IS, requires nothing more than acceptance.  And in the ever present moment of acceptance, comes a vast sense of relief as the paradigm of polarity, and indecisive judgement based on fluctuating emotion of an interpreted aspect of opinionated reasoning of individual reality shaped through a qualified education of misinformation suddenly seems less logical than the effortless acceptance of 'what is', one may start to grasp a clearer picture of 'what Isn't' and with this in mind, a mild sense of amusement can be embraced as the self becomes aware of the infinite potential of the mind within the finite structure of the body that can have infinite scenarios of experience within the finite dimensions of the Globe.
