Guest Post by the Dali Lama

Month end is deadline time for me, so bear with me, as I am frazzled. Writing all day is a dream job, but it fries my wee brain and come blog time, I'm scrambling. These are the days when I turn to the true pally, the Dali Lama, to fill in--a guest post per se. Although he doesn't know it. But if he did, I bet he'd gladly do it--I hear he is a follower of Duck and Wheel.

I'm going to continue on with the Instructions for Life, as per the Dali Lama. I listed a few a week or so ago, and I think they are worth adding to.

1. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.
2. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.
3. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
4. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
5. Be gentle with the earth.
6. Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.

Aren't these great? My favorite is Number 5. No wait, Number 6. Oh, heck--I like all of them.

I'm a little out of it until Tuesday--after graduation, after graduation parties out of town, after all the banquets and award ceremonies, after deadline at work. I'm trying to fit it all in, get it all accomplished, and get everyone where they are supposed to be. Ugh. Crazy days.

Breathe deep, pallies. I know I am.
