Adams Rubble: yes little one is present :)
Riddle Sideways: watched many TV 'comedy' talk shows
Riddle Sideways: last night
Adams Rubble: sometimes they can help
Riddle Sideways: a not-so light look at last week
Adams Rubble: some people in the government have shown an unbelievably ugly side
Adams Rubble: want to suppress anyone who is compassionate
Riddle Sideways: yes, unbelievably ugly
Riddle Sideways: thank you, had forgotten a topic
Adams Rubble: ohhh, very sorry
Riddle Sideways: had thought about Wrath and Compassion since yesterday
Adams Rubble: I just can't shake it--reminded when I approach the computer
Adams Rubble: ahhh wrath and compassion
Riddle Sideways: felt odd to have forgotten
Adams Rubble: have to remember why we are angry and not fall into the trap of making the anger about the "self"
Riddle Sideways: good that is was not weighting on mind, bad that had no good topic to discuss
Riddle Sideways: and Anger seems long term
Riddle Sideways: going on and on or being held
Riddle Sideways: and taken out in wrong directions
Adams Rubble: probably not healthy for us to carry it long term
Riddle Sideways: against self or loved ones when it is other generated
Riddle Sideways: nope not healthy
Adams Rubble: November 6 a good time to let it rise and smite thine foes
Riddle Sideways: like how your talking
Riddle Sideways: was confused about wrath
Adams Rubble thinks about Supreme Court Justices in bar fights
--BELL--
Adams Rubble: back to the wild west days
Adams Rubble: wrong kind of wrath
Adams Rubble: wrath is the third deadly sin :)
Adams Rubble: pride, envy, wrath, sloth...
Riddle Sideways: wow, you know the order
Adams Rubble: ...greed, gluttony and lust
Riddle Sideways: ok, it is a deadly sin, so thou shalt not should do it
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: just, when it was sounding like a replacement for anger
Adams Rubble: God did it all the time
Riddle Sideways: Original double standard?
Adams Rubble: even Jesus had wrath with the money changers
Adams Rubble sings There is a time for every purpose under heaven
Riddle Sideways: nice song
Adams Rubble wonders how many seven deadly sins that Trump doeth
Adams Rubble: an example to us all :)
Riddle Sideways: sloth?
Adams Rubble: golf course?
Riddle Sideways: oh
Riddle Sideways: he might not admit to envy
Adams Rubble: that's because he has an eighth
Adams Rubble: fibbing
Riddle Sideways: ah
Riddle Sideways: has added new sins to list
Adams Rubble: make sins great again
Riddle Sideways: can't decide on adding smiley or frowny
Adams Rubble is not much help this morning
Adams Rubble: so sorry to bring my darkness
Riddle Sideways: need a compassion generator
Adams Rubble: :)
Adams Rubble sees a bunch of scientists huddled in a dark room on the upper floor of a campus building....
Riddle Sideways: hear on radio: saw a T-Shirt that read "Science, what got us this far"
Riddle Sideways: *heard
Riddle Sideways: need both a personal and public compassion generator
Adams Rubble: Carl Sagen thought it was the suppression of the scientists that led to the fall of the great Greek covilization
Riddle Sideways: maybe a Pan-endemic of compassion
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: passed by shaking hands together
Riddle Sideways: or by Smiles
Adams Rubble: Johnny tonglen-seed
Riddle Sideways: yes
Riddle Sideways: they shall reap what you sow
Adams Rubble: yes
--BELL--
Riddle Sideways: tell us more about this having compassion on thine enemies
Adams Rubble: they are badly hurting in their ignorance
Adams Rubble: Trump is such an unhappy person
Adams Rubble: we can have compassion for that and hope that they find the knowledge that will help them break out of their pit
Adams Rubble: we can have compassion for that person
Adams Rubble: they are not what they do
Adams Rubble: it is the "what they do" that is bad
Adams Rubble: there is a redeemable human being underneath
Riddle Sideways: he was so happy part of yesterday over the NAFTA v2.0 renaming to unpronouncable as the Greatest deal
Riddle Sideways: good: what they Are vs. what they Do
Adams Rubble: his unhappy "self" needs constant attention; he can never have enough; the slightest slight makes him react like a three year old
Adams Rubble: his father was cruel to him--beat him
Riddle Sideways: that lesson about richest man still not happy
Adams Rubble: once beat him because he did not have a jacket and tie to go to a baseball game
Riddle Sideways: missed that story
Riddle Sideways: now feel bad for young Donny
Riddle Sideways: that is a good way to find compassion for another
Adams Rubble: yes we can have compassion for that person and his own children
Adams Rubble: who received terrible treatment from him
Riddle Sideways: that dog can't help it, it was beat as a pup
Adams Rubble: yes those dogs are messed up for the rest of their lives
Riddle Sideways: a parable
Adams Rubble: a sister who spent her life visiting peope in prison once said we should never judge a person by the worst thing they did in their lives--but we do
Adams Rubble: I said but we do, not her :)
Riddle Sideways: "We were talking, about the space between us all..." - Within you, Without you - George
Riddle Sideways: opens browser to listen to it
Adams Rubble: our rage generated by politics is empty :)
Riddle Sideways: ya know, you're right
Adams Rubble: conditioned by walking into the room where the computer resides :)
Riddle Sideways: or the room with that TV
Adams Rubble: yes
Riddle Sideways: or the newspaper reading room
Riddle Sideways: going back in those rooms brings the context back
Riddle Sideways: we remember
Adams Rubble: yes
Adams Rubble: but it OK to let our wrath fly on November 6
Adams Rubble: :)
Riddle Sideways: need to leave there happy, so that as the last thing
