Hello Abbotts! I know you all from jamming and such. Being also interested in Taoism, I came to this site as soon as I realized that you and the Taoist center were connected. And yet, it took a silly TV show to actually get me to register and post here. Go figure.
Isn't that "why put off until tomorrow something that you can do today?" It's all one and the same, sort of...just a matter of when you plan on getting around to it. Whatever "it" is.
Anyhow, just thought I'd sign the guestbook. I'm Joanne, a mom of two girls (ages 16 and 8 years old).. I live in a suburb of Milwaukee where tonight the windchill is about -15 so I have no intention of going anywhere barefoot. I stumbled across your website after watching TS (which I had never watched before...call this a serendipitous stumble). I am becoming addicted to reading what you guys have to say. I think that I'm trying to find some sense and meaning to everything, and so much of what I read on this website seems to be calling to me. I'm really good at listening, so keep on talking!
Here's one. It takes more muscles to frown than to smile. I don't find tthat true 'cause it does take more muscles to smile than to not smile. . . . that's why I don't smile much.
Exactly! Although usually a dumb look involves the mouth agape and I don't gape my mouth. I think it takes more than 17 muscles to smile but I'm not sure.
And besides, sitting doesn't have anything to do with smiling!

in which case it would be ok to wait if it was something you didn't want to do :?

that's my motto anyway.....
not trying to turn this into a quote board-but that one just came to mind...
"It takes 43 muscles to frown and only 17 muscles to smile but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face"
:P
