  2. Contemplate being holey, having risen and passed through the heat. Her meditation is deep (fried).

  4. It's eerie, but these maxims are starting to mimic things in my life. I was trying to quiet the noise and chatter that crept into into my mind recently on a photo walk. I can be so annoying!

    Yo! Cro! Could also be used amongst cronies?

    I think Cassandra may be suffering a little from "holier than thou" syndrome.

    Yes, although one on the spiritual path is not always rolling in dough.

  9. Stickup Artist,
    I have a small stock of these maxims that I choose from each week. Do you think maybe I'm channeling your life and choosing accordingly??? It's great that you're able to relate to them, even if a little eerie!
    :-}

  14. Keith,
    Either the nearest hot yoga class or corner donut shop, whichever you're most comfortable with. Or probably hanging about in a bookstore in front of the section that houses Eat, Pray, Love.

    I designed her yoga ensemble myself.

  16. I know it's a sad thing, but I equate "meditation"
    with being in a vegetable state and not a doughnut in sight.

  17. Shirl,
    Meditation is just quieting the noisy chatter of one's mind enough to stop worrying and making up stories that make oneself feel sad and anxious. Counting your stitches while knitting is a form of meditation. You can't visualize a doughnut while counting and knitting at the same time, can you?
