They say if you don’t
have nothing, then you’ve got nothing to lose and I suppose they’ve got a point
there…but I always have had the thought that we all have got something…too many
times I think folks are looking how much the other fella has…gold, popularity,
fame…instead of concentrating on how much they themselves have…all those things
have their downsides too and sometimes it puts people under…I’m not of the sort
that believe in equanimity…in other words being happy for them…that seems a
little altruistic for me…one of the problems I have with some Buddhist
teachings…I don’t need to be happy for them, I just need to be content with
what I have or in some cases don’t have.
