The Philosophic Mind

At the close of business (COB)-- this COB term was introduced by the Da Desi Coder the past two days I think, and from THIS INTRO I'm confirming mui-mui Helen's thinking allowed that I am returning to normal turf after the several-day MENJ romp. I thank Mave SM, Helen, Anak Merdeka whose mind I could read well -- they too mine, which is my mind -- that Desi could still be somewhat "troubled" with my final decision to DISCONTINUE THE INITIATIVE as an amicable solution was reached with/by the main protagonist/actor. This last bit pertains to Desi's Bardist inclinations that hold that The World's A Stage...

Also, All's Well That Ends Well.

Helen, tell Desi what led to your concern -- strangely enough, all these three ER have had just about 3-4 months' engagement with this Blogger. No, there was no exchange of rings, Mave can confirm dat!:) But we seem to have known each other eon years, rite? Treat this as a semi-rhetoric Q, which translates into "You may answer if you wish, which means in a positive manner; OR you may decide NOT to respond, which means you have nothing nu'e to add, or withhold one's blessed tongue on something negative. If I were to use 'sumthin'' negative, it impplies 'badly' on my trio-readers, and I don't want them to run away. Those "hits" remember, many a Blogger's obsession. And AM - what is it that made thee think Desiderata2000 is "femes" ? ~~ from an eralier Conpliment. Is there a typo there -- you'd wanted "fe-mail", NO?

Desi would be lying if he said that his "blood pressure" did not rise from reading some of the postings by people who do not know how to focus on debating an issue, one central and some(just a few!) secondary ones, but chose to use "four-letter" words like a WMD, F---ing people everywhere.

F, F, F and F everywhere but not a single drop to drink. Left, right, centre, even hittting his ..ther, ..ther, ...ther, and ...ter, most likely? -- but I won't go into that terrortry today. Next Tuesday mayhaps, to post the Ultimate Update mainly to "share" with my Esteemed Readers. To those F---ing Bloggers/Commenters, dammed you I carez! I dunno until now why that 'z' is there, but this is cuntsistent with Blogs lingo in the tradition of Anywayz/anyways, the Mafai king's My Way, Your ways, My wayz. It's okay -- this is what Blogosphere journey's about, chiefly to ENJOY OURSELVES...

Okay, life returns to normal.

And to accord some appreciation, please bear with me I reprise some "Concerned and Assuring Voices" that came yesterday evening, and others in Da Steal of Da Knight. Talking strange now, DDC not the BBC, that I leave to Howsy steal trysting with Miss Mimi and Nicol or Nicole, both BTW, are female, so make no misstake about mGf's tendencies. But one tendency I can confirm is he's prone to taking Hiatus. I may just become a disciple. Mentor-mentee role reversal.

Thanks for your concern.

I always will move on with Blogosphere friends I've made -- including you guys,w hich include Fe-mail, OK! -- some of whom I've met over at least THREE gatherings we call the G7 or G7+ meets.

Yes, Helen and other ER who read this:

Desi will come back after a wickedend Hiatus -- refreshed and raring to go,
"Here, There and Everywhere"

Thanks, Desi, you have a big heart! Have been following your post, still your ever-faithfull reader. Not completely silent, but rather, watch and pray!

Many things happen over the past few weeks. Your "updates" on the turn of events came in exactly the same time of another event of sensitive nature with the same happy ending. When you pray, things happen!

You are great - that's what I read when I visited a client's office yesterday. I really saw the greatness in this person in doing things very professionally. His son, Ryan, wrote the card to him.

Friend, you are great! I want to share this verse with you - for encouragement,

Matthew 25:40
"...whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me."

DESI: To Emmanuel, who is just a 'babe' visitor to Desi's Place, I say a Big Than You, because I say in all sincerity, your views on the MENJ issue coincide a lot with Desi's (I had been following your views plus others at other Blogs too...)
Welcome, please stay for a Haridas' cuppa; with many Happy Rerturns I hope because you truly are an articulate one. I enjoy discoursing with many Y&A ones in my one-year-plus blogspheric journey. Some we'll meet For a Reason, others for a Season, a lucky few for a Lifetime. As I said months back (Christmas?), I'm proceeding to counting the MisTheToes.

And among the early fingers and "toes" here I have counted is of course, mGf Yan; visit her gem writes @yantouch.blogsome.com; I do get some bemefits doing promo at my own Blog, there's a tradition called 30% CONmission...

(Witch/Which can explain why the Matrade Building was delivered 9 years late -- how about entering THIS into the Malaysain Buku Rekod? Digressing first time today, lucky for you guys! exercising a Blogger's privilege&luxury ~~~)

Did myobservant ER -- which is short for EsteemedReaders, BTW to newer comers here, there &everywhere-- observe that big turkey of a word *Penultimate in yesterday's Post Title?
When teaching English, Da Teacher will tell you, avoid using the same word, or words from the same root, in the same sentence. I wrote IT that way to demo this point. Subs (witch is short for Substitute...with discern/notice/see ... this is to demonsrate -- which is the long form for demo -- that our discourses become more lively and enriching, instaed showing off your les-than-pigs'level minds flaunting your great vocab with shooting of F..., fu.., fuc.! used by one stupid 'ducky' that left a lingering bad taste. Someone should get his Mum's permision for a dental appointment to get a really good Mouth Wash! before venturing into certain Blogs terra/terror~ tory.

Okay, where was I?
Ah, big word, *Penultimate.
Okay, Guess the meaning from the following poem/Limerick~~?

There once was a runner so fit,
During practice he merely would sit.
So the day of the race,
He retired in disgrace,
After finishing penultimate.


My ER are well advised, at leisure, to visit Yan's blog because when Desi is "wearied" by all the politic and "economic/business dampeners" such as reflected in today's NEWS HEADLINES:

HL1: Power rates up 12%



HL2:Consumers
unhappy
with rising c
ost of living


HL3: Matrade fiasco
eye-opener, says TI


HL4: 'Don't expect fall
in oil prices so soon'

BTW, "4" in Kantonis or another dialect sounds like "See" which means "Die"

Butt I get inspiration reading gems such as this, which I "steal" in da still ...~~~


"...I bought it - the most expensive watch I have ever owned. My mother left with her children a treasured legacy of "living within means". She is a living example of a wonderful chorus that I still hum to myself -

This world is not my home

I'm just a-passing through

My treasures are laid up

Somewhere beyond the blue

The angels beckon me

From heavens open door

And I can't feel at home

in this world anymore."

Extracted from Time and eternity May 12, 2006 recalling Mother's Day by mGf Yan, to whom I vowed that Desderata2000 will go one IF there were just ONE reader I am sure will visit, whatever sharks fin or ikan bilis or cili crab I offer here...because she would point Desi to the Right Path IF I should offer crap instead!



As I close, Desi says a BIG THANK YOU to his Blogsworld companions, for mutually keeping tabs on each other, for mutual sharing and caring, enhancing each other's enjoyment with words, from the heart, on a journey that's free except for our time and passion.

Often using poetry, or Prose which flows as poetry in motion.

Like the following Passion -- You guess plucked from which gardnern?She offered me Carte Blanche at lunch, so I offer this Dish~~

Peace be with you, even if you disagree

"Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish that they are after!"


- Henry David Thoreau


We cannot expect to find peace and harmony in our lives if we are only looking for people who agree with us.

The world consists of all types of individuals, each with their own perspective, each with their own individual opinions.

If we find happiness only when someone agrees with us, our moments of peace and joy will be very rare indeed.

We must learn to accept disagreement. We must learn to respect other points of view, other perspectives. We can find mutual harmony and peace if we can learn to agree to disagree.

As we begin to learn this on a personal individual level, agreeing to disagree without a fight, without an argument, we can then begin to pass this lesson along to our friends and our neighbours, our family and our co-workers.

As we begin to accomplish this on a daily, individual basis, then we are contributing towards peace for all humanity.

(from TIME FOR JOY, Daily Affirmations by Ruth Fishel)

Thanks to philosophic minds like Anak Merdeka and Yan for borrowing thy Kopilefts, from a sometimes Rightist, especially on a Sundae. Treat this Post as my Wickedend treat, arriving early because the heart deems it timely.:)


Oh, my heart, which according to mGf is "big", sometimes suffers from high, and hence "being big" inclined to "bigger pressure" when you bump into unfortunates like ducky, but more often I am greAted by fRiends like above-mentioned, and others not mentioned in today's post I garnered via Blogsworld, I don't need Thernomin or Athenolol. Jest LOLs!
