'Thou are dust and unto dust thou shall return'

T.S.Eliot's 'Ash Wednesday' stunned me. Karen Armstrong was the one who first revealed its beauty and force to me on a PBS TV program.

The poem is like a seed. It grows in me and each time i preach it to someone else, it flowers and loves me back.

Today is such a beautiful day. I ride my bike to work during lunch break and ride back on the Raritan Canal trail watching sun sets. Life is beautiful and death is the beginning of new life.

I met many friends on jiaoyou8. Under their influence, i fall in love with Classic Chinese and Chinese culture all over again. 'Thou are dust and unto dust thou shall return', we Chinese believe that 'Budda is also dust'...

A la the Simpsons (where Mister Burns is depicted as being saved from a raving, obese Homer)

"Buchanan Reaches Out Compassionately to Misguided Liberals"

"Buchanan Survives Liberal Attempt on Life, Conscience; Vows to Run on Morality and Virtue Platform"

'course, the Lamppost would then say

"Doyles Resist Touch of Evil"
