Usually someone teaches it, or some event triggers it. Nosy, ain't I? :-)<br /><br />Ah, well. Schizophrenia is apparently pandemic, if not universal; might as well relax about it. In my case; when you mention Greek philosophers- I'm afraid the one I most identify with is Diogenes. I know, ick, right? But there was that great exchange, where Big Al The Great met him, and said "If I were not Alexander, I would want to be Diogenes!" And Diogenes tossed back "Big whoop. I'd want to be Diogenes, too." Gotta love THAT.<br /><br />I put up a new post on my blog today (a rare event), which, schizo like, is not diogenistic at all; you might like it. <br /><br />http://littlebloginthebigwoods.blogspot.com/2014/03/burning-my-old-friends-bones.htmlGreenpahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17224906349154302210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234080188619303136.post-83201338732870623132014-03-02T12:01:08.613-08:002014-03-02T12:01:08.613-08:00Let's see what Wikipedia has to say about my h...Let's see what Wikipedia has to say about my hero;<br /><br />For Epicurus, the purpose of philosophy was to attain the happy, tranquil life, characterized by ataraxia—peace and freedom from fear—and aponia—the absence of pain—and by living a self-sufficient life surrounded by friends. He taught that pleasure and pain are the measures of what is good and evil; death is the end of both body and soul and should therefore not be feared; the gods neither reward nor punish humans; the universe is infinite and eternal; and events in the world are ultimately based on the motions and interactions of atoms moving in empty space.<br /><br />Yup, sounds right!<br /><br />:)shandra berihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15263769438873496062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234080188619303136.post-21763198042393077222014-03-02T11:26:46.153-08:002014-03-02T11:26:46.153-08:00I really don't know why it is, but these thing...I really don't know why it is, but these things of yours uniformly make me smile. :-) And how did you become such an erudite foodie?Greenpahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17224906349154302210noreply@blogger.com
