I'm known as raincloud elsewhere but really really tired of even a name so I've reverted to an old name from a beloved wolfdog companion many years ago, knowing there really is no rest anywhere...
In March I go to California, hoping that by then an aspiration can be voiced... until then in limbo with limbs able to carry wood and water for which I am grateful.

Greetings and welcome, Zamis.
I was hoping you would work out where we'd all gotten to... thanks for finding us.
Metta,
Retro.

If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)
'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra Panyapatipo
