  • "The hardest part about being an empath is finding where others end and we begin. It's so fluid that sometimes we can't even tell that we're absorbing another. This does well to express all the facets of what it means for us, the great cost we pay. I like the way it ends, because every single last bit of what we are is true, and that is what is most misunderstood."

  • "I get a sense that although this maybe inspired by the philosopher, it is very personal to you. Some thing you have had an intimate experience with. Perhaps severely deceived by someone trusted. Perhaps that person was so deceitful that they believed their own lies? "

  • "This is something that I'm sure reaches so many because it can be interpreted in so many ways. You have a very broad reach and a haunting way of expressing yourself. I don't know you but, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance."

  • "A wonderful potd. Sufism, in my opinion, is one of the purest beliefs that exists amidst humans. To spend every day observing nature and witnessing the correlation between the love in nature and the love in man. There is a friend of mine named Sadredin Taheri, and his cd is called "The Hidden Beloved" on myspace. All his songs are musical recreations of Rumi poems. Check it out sometime, he's beautiful. Well done in capturing the essence of the meaning. Seems religion's misdirection is a theme for the week."

  • "“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle” ~Sun Tzu Great points and great pen..thanks"

  • "You are all figments of my imagination, I can look into God's eyes all the time when I gaze into the mirror, but then it's hard to tear myself away. "Mirror, mirror on the wall..." (Snow White's Mom). Most enigmatic but astutely analyzed and excellent, now it's back to the mirror again for a pick me-upper, cheers! "
