Riddle Sideways: Hi Xir
Xirana Oximoxi: hello Rid! :-)
Riddle Sideways: just reading about stopping
Riddle Sideways: should stop reading about stopping
Xirana Oximoxi: you mean at the guardian's session?
Xirana Oximoxi: hehe yes... stop reading:)
Riddle Sideways: yes. and the links and some searches
Bleu Oleander: 's current display-name is "Bleu".
Xirana Oximoxi: hello Bleu!
Riddle Sideways: Hi Bleu
Bleu Oleander: hi Xiri, Riddle :)
Riddle Sideways: so much going on that stopping would be the best thing
Riddle Sideways: just a 9-sec stop would be great
Bleu Oleander: :)
Xirana Oximoxi: I read the text Zen proposed... as far as I remember to stop is a way to value the moment we are here
Riddle Sideways: the age old thing of not valueing this moment because of the next
Riddle Sideways: the constant want of the next moment
Bleu Oleander: well, how to even define "the moment" ...?
Riddle Sideways: yep
Bleu Oleander: the now is hard to pinpoint

Riddle Sideways: then remembering the Woodie Allen scene (Annie Hall) about sharks needing to be in constant motion
Bleu Oleander: feels more fluid for me
Riddle Sideways: or they can't breathe
Bleu Oleander: yes!
Riddle Sideways: and die
Bleu Oleander: keep moving or die
Bleu Oleander: hehe
Riddle Sideways: "what we have here is a dead Shark"
Bleu Oleander: just watched "play it again sam" again :)
Riddle Sideways: "we'll always have Paris"
Bleu Oleander: oh and also watch "being there"
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
Bleu Oleander: had never seen that movie
Bleu Oleander: really very interesting
Bleu Oleander: Peter Sellers was great
Riddle Sideways: ah... Peter Sellers
Xirana Oximoxi: I have not seen the movie either
Xirana Oximoxi: just Casablanca
Riddle Sideways: innosence in a complicated world
                  --BELL--
Riddle Sideways: just rewatched "as good as it gets"
Riddle Sideways: Hi dRuth
Bleu Oleander: hi druth
Xirana Oximoxi: hello druth
druth Vlodovic: hi guys
Bleu Oleander: did u like it Riddle?
Riddle Sideways: kind of sad humor
Riddle Sideways: broken people
Bleu Oleander: what does that mean, "broken"?
Riddle Sideways: you've not seen it?
Xirana Oximoxi: I have not
Bleu Oleander: I saw it a long time ago
Riddle Sideways: Nickleson is OCD (sp?)
Xirana Oximoxi: ahhh I have seen it, I've just did not remember the title
Xirana Oximoxi: yes....'broken' people....people that don't fit but that somehow stablish a deep connexion between them
Riddle Sideways: todo list addition = STOP and go rewatch all good old movies :)
Bleu Oleander: yes
Bleu Oleander: fun actually
Xirana Oximoxi: yes... I should do:)...lately I don't watch a lot of films
Bleu Oleander: me either
Bleu Oleander: "no time"
Bleu Oleander: but how we fill our time is related to stopping yes?
Riddle Sideways: well.... time seems to still be in existance
Xirana Oximoxi: time is relatyed to preferences
Xirana Oximoxi: related
Riddle Sideways: need to make stoppnig a preference... later
Bleu Oleander: we make choices, sometimes we perceive that we have no choices
Bleu Oleander: so what does it mean to "stop"?
Bleu Oleander: "stop what?"
Riddle Sideways: like today... 3 other people have scheduled my 1pm
Xirana Oximoxi: to stop may be also a choice...we decide to do to value where we are in our lives
Bleu Oleander: so to stop means to value our lives?
Xirana Oximoxi: to stop maybe allows us to see more options
Xirana Oximoxi: more ways to take
Bleu Oleander: so widens our awareness?
Xirana Oximoxi: to stop deos not mean it necessarily...but it can be useful to value our lives
Bleu Oleander: which seems like not stopping to me
Riddle Sideways: even to take the next 90-sec to stop activities, is still hard to stop mind businesses
Riddle Sideways: busy-ness
Riddle Sideways: spinning
Riddle Sideways: typing :)
                  --BELL--
Bleu Oleander: we are in such a rush to stop our minds when life is but a brief moment in time and will ultimately stop
druth Vlodovic slipping off
Xirana Oximoxi: bye bye druth
Bleu Oleander: bye druth
Riddle Sideways: bye druth
Riddle Sideways: thanks for stopping by
Xirana Oximoxi: mybe people practivicing meditation can stop more easily 'mind business':)
Bleu Oleander: the challenge for me is not to stop my mind, but to use it more productively ... what that would mean is a process to understand for me
Xirana Oximoxi: do you have some strategies to use your mind more productively, Bleu?
Bleu Oleander: good question!
Xirana Oximoxi: :)
Riddle Sideways: /listens
Bleu Oleander: a strategy is to stay curious
Xirana Oximoxi too
Bleu Oleander: so much to discover ... happiness seems to be a byproduct
Bleu Oleander: so many ways to connect with interesting people
Bleu Oleander: learn new things
Bleu Oleander: grow in understanding
Bleu Oleander: slip away from influence of the media and main stream culture
Riddle Sideways: even re-visiting old memories, old movies, old concerts can bring new things
Bleu Oleander: yes exactly
Xirana Oximoxi: yes....sharing with other people the knowledge of different cultures is a good way to be opne mind and understand better the world...with different perspectives
Bleu Oleander: yes ... widening one's circle
Riddle Sideways: Went to a 'Yes' concert Sunday and have spent a couple days re-living those lyrics and chord changes
Bleu Oleander: nice
Bleu Oleander: seems to take me out of myself ... if that makes any sense?
Xirana Oximoxi: that's great:))...did you feel the music differently now?
Riddle Sideways: 70's awakening progressive rock as a medium to ...
Xirana Oximoxi: it happens to me when I read a book I did long ago... I can read a complelty different book now:)
Bleu Oleander: music can play a meditative role for me
