Ah, My Joyful Sophia (wisdom)

'To be or not to be', is the question? I remember in my readings of a Rabbi who lived during the Middle Ages, who had been offered the position of head honcho (The Messiah!)... and declined. That struck me as so profound! It contradicts great western philosophers like Nietzsche who have expounded the philosophy of 'Will to Power', and man's innate desire to conquer all. (Man, for all intents and purposes, a selfish individual.)

So again, the establishment (Adhoc Committe) has told me to take a hike (which I did, at Darcy's Mental Health walk last weekend, and got blisters to prove it :-)). Again, I have been rebuffed to the outer realms of the tribe, to live out my existence in ignominy. A fate for a warrior, that is worst than death itself!

Oh, the shame of it all!!! ... My application, supposedly, presented to the board by the chair Shane Stewart.

note: But then, I remembered what my friend Chief Dan George said, long ago: "we must endeavour to persevere". Ah, My Joyful Sophia (wisdom)!


Not bad for a guy who just got back from chicken wings at Pure Country, plus 5 beers, hey! :-)
