About Me
- Name: Cynthia
- Location: Tennessee, United States
There are so many aspects to life. It's rich and complicated, and even the simplest of people is more complex than anyone can imagine. Each of our interests can shine like a jewel when it's in its own little box, but when they're massed together, it can be dazzling. I wanted my blog to reflect some of that intangible wealth.

Some days the cost of objectivity seems to be sanity. And sometimes it works the way Thich Nhat Hanh suggests it does - Buddhism has some nice ideas, at least in theory, including detachment from self.
Unfortunately, the way it works for me usually involves my sanity or lack thereof, and I end up running in circles.

My point of view -- a million dollars.
Someone else's -- five million.
Objectivity -- priceless.
Loved gannet girl's post.
Somedays I feel depression so strong that I want to be silent and just exist....others I am angry and want to scream. Thankfully some others a small cup of kindness makes the world beautiful once again. I am thankful most for those days.
