The lowest common denominator is all too common.

"Never learn to make your deeds common with your life "
"Jagdish Bajantri "

Emotions are substance -- Love, hate, they are substance. Angels, they are substance. Maybe not what we commonly understand as physical matter, but spirit is substance. Spirit is real. For me, after everything has been cleaned and polished, there radiates love. Love is the source and ever evolving embodiment of manifest reality. Nothing exists outside of love...all else is illusion.

You emerge from the common run of humanity and occupy an eternal part of my heaven.

“Men, when enthrall’d by the puissant tide of their own affections, are oft but humble clay, unshapen and earthbound; yet they who stand apart and behold such passions with contemplative eye are transmuted into poets. For thus it hath ever seem’d to me that the most guiding and heaven-breathed literature of the world descendeth unto us not in common speech, but array’d in the measured raiment of verse.”

Depression is a common ailment of poets. Unless you’ve reached Shakespeare’s level of detachment, then God allows you to focus on technique & musicality.
|
I've never accepted the common notion that you must be crazy if you talk to yourself. Most of the time, I'm the only one who will listen to me.
|
Poetry expresses feelings that are common in humanity, allowing us to unite in understanding, empathy, and solidarity. Good poetry also challenges us to be our best selves; a resurrection of the spirit, a refinement of the soul.

Good marriages are built upon a combination of emotional love and a
common commitment to a core of beliefs about what is important in life
and what we wish to do with our lives.
– Gary Chapman

I love the desert. The people who inhabit it, an old desert rat myself -- and the creatures that survive in such a challenging environment. Not so estranged from kids growing up in poverty on the streets of New York. All elements of creation have more in common than differences. Sorry Gleick, you are wrong.
|
Although these terms may often imply some parity, their common and shared roots, may separate and turn them astray. For example, genius and wisdom both involve the intellect, yet can be sadly independent and distinct in their own way.
|
Life and joy have one thing in common
Neither one is explainable
even if one is a bowl of something
and the other, a saucepan.
|
If we take a closer look at the common business terms, 'risk or return', they might easily be replaced by loss or gain. Going further, these borders may at times be redefined, until their naked truth is shown;
that of pleasure or pain.
|
I can envision some day in the future, where 3-D printers are a common 'appliance' in every home. The real question is, does it belong in the kitchen, bathroom, living room, or maybe the garage? Well, I suppose it's hard to know everything.

A man who seeks wisdom is one of honor, but a man who lacks common sense is a disaster to himself
|
Understanding reality and our existence rests upon physics and what is observed. Now while quantum theory and general relativity don't seem to play well together, it's hoped that the material and the ethereal can eventually be joined into a common-law marriage, with a lasting union simple enough to predict.

If mankind is to survive and flourish, it must rid itself of petty hatreds, whether racial, ethnic, cultural, or political, and realize that through the multitude of diversity and difference, a reservoir of commonality is far greater than all the conflicts we endure.

Common sense is wisdom... in the shallow end of the pool.
|
Wisdom without common sense is like writing with a pen without ink

The big belly can accommodate all kinds of things. The benevolence never lets a dust behind. - Happy Buddha / Laughing Buddha / Maitreya Buddha

We all live in a world of commonwealth...
Truly hope there will have a better human nature on earth!!!
|
One important factor when we observe a common flight . . . is it seen to be rising, or falling quickly out of sight?
|
God gave to man free will, carrying with it the power of choice, leading to differing views becoming the common framework of mankind.
Nowhere in this creation, did it speak of imposing one's will upon another ( that was man's alone ), thus destroying the origin and ideal. The challenge lies with gathering these strands of diversity that can be woven into a tapestry that endures beyond a single thread. This fabric of humanity is the remnant to survive.

I find that the most intelligent folks don't apply commonsense but stick to unconventional rules.

...one day we all die, we all must leave something of our love behind for those who need our love the most ... time is a precious commodity, stolen and squandered by the injustices and untruths of life.

Living with fear is commonplace . . . as long as we don't live in fear constantly.

Bullet and Poison have two things in common both are fast and furious.

i'm minoring in history,
you're majoring in mystery,

do i love you? (from the poem "Uncommon")
