Two Pounds Worth

mindful 
    or a mind full
    ~  of itself


          ***


  the mind 
  is but a game
  played by your brain


         ***


   your brain has a mind of its own
   and it’s more trainable than you


         ***

Taking me back and back and back even further. I've lost my train of thought thinking about this one over and over again. So exquisite Maureen. Than you.

Dear Anil! You found me incognito! I’m still here, playing with my brain, lovely to see you. I hope you are keeping well in this crazy world. Peace and love, Maureen (xomo!)

So much more going on in the brain, than we will ever know Super Mo, especially the subconscious, where reality gets very weird indeed, cheers David

In essence that is reality and life, without us to observe, the universe may as well not be there at all, we're immortal by our own perception

You made me think of the tree falling in the forest… Does reality exist without a brain to perceive it? ;), xomo
