Decide       By~ William J. Thorpe (aka...Billy Bardo)       © 2001........                   Atoms and planets are spinning,       Through space and time across the Great Divide,       And ever since the beginning,       What distinguishes us is that we decide.......             We decide what everything means,      Based on assumptions and omens and dreams.       We want to see what it is, but we just see what it seems,       Until it all comes around.........             They say that life's an adventure,       Who makes the rules, and who shapes the dreams?      To see through what it is, you must see through what it seems,       Until it all comes around........             They say that life's an adventure,      But will you be the ticket-holder or the ride?       Self-expression or social censure?       Just remember what we said about who decides.......             Who decides what everything means?       Who makes the rules, and who shapes the dreams?       To see through what it is, you must see through what it seems,      Until it all comes around.......             And if life is what you make it, take it 'cause you asked for it.       To walk the path of power, the work is on you.      So fake it 'til you make it, make it 'til you master it.       Act as if it's so, and watch it all come true......             Some ask if this life we are living,       Is more than just a marker for space and time,       And I guess that the answers I'm giving      Are all muddled up with myth and rhyme.......             But here's some questions for you to ponder      As around the circle you go.      What do you savor, and what do you squander?       What do you believe, and what do you know?......

A monk asked:
“The mountains, the rivers, and the great earth
-from where did all of these things come forth?”

Tiantai said:
“From where did this question come forth?”
