[Jim's Eclectic World] New comment on Mourning the loss of William "Doubting" Thomas.

Hello Jim,

Thomas was a mentor for me too when I met him in 1985. He chose to live by his ideals which brought him to create the vigil in front of the White House; he brought me to that same vigil where I too was arrested several times. It is extremely rare to find someone on this earth who speaks and lives the truth; who lives the life that his principles dictate, who lives by his ideals. Before arriving in DC, he had wonderful stories of traveling the world, giving up his passport and citizenship and trying to be what we all are: human beings sharing a planet with no borders. The lessons I learned from him are with me to this very day, and I am deeply saddened to hear the news of his death. PEACE be with you THOMAS.

Jim,
I am sorry for your loss and for all of us as Americans who lost a great example of what this country stands for.

Jim - your story about Thomas is so touching - he is my age and should have had many more good years to protest! Most of our generation has "sold out" in my opinion, and sacrificed their core beliefs to join the mainstream. It is very encouraging to know that some of us still care about the things we protested for and against back then. It is not easy to have the courage to not compromise those ideals. I am very sad that he will not be here to carry on - perhaps you are taking up where he leaves off. Virginia

[Jim's Eclectic World] New comment on Yellowstone doom: Imagine better this new year.

We do limit our imaginations, don't we? We limit them in so many ways...by letting our culture determine the well worn paths down which our minds will travel...by following certain fascinations and not others...by prefering certainty to wonder...by feeling safer when a door is closed than when it is open...by our unquestioned assumptions...by the widespread mythology that human stories are the only ones worth telling...by our refusal to accept the fluid nature of self...by not realzing that numbers, words, colors, seasons, pebbles, waterfalls, lampposts and an infinity of other beings are alive too...by disintegrating mind chairs into passageways of guffawing calliopes.

Love
Me

hi jim,
i have read your explanation for "to be or not to be" i have never read such a large idea being put into a region of logic so clearly.

thanks for allowing me to agree and not feel completly stupid.
