Greetings,
Heheh... I got through that one undercover quite nicely.
It was actually yesterday and it was a really nice day.
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

...he wondered whether there was any love between human beings that did not rest upon some sort of self-delusion.

Happy Birthday! One year closer to parinibbana?
For your birthday I purchased you an imaginary trip on a glorious 1930's retro-futuristic flying boat.
