"I" sees through both "my" eyes. I sees through all 100 trillion eyes on this planet. So what's the use of yet another pair of eyes to see with, unless it's to check out what the binocular perspective from that moving point in the universe is like.
Being yet one more hot squidge of granodiorite cooling off in some crack in the mantle 70 miles below Mt. Shasta is just another way to experience what Is, too. Or moving into a garden apartment in Sitges, busking on the sidewalks in DC, walking the trails in Fairfield, pounding out more code in San Jose, or offering flowers to the lotus feet of another monkey that looks more like me than I do myself. It's all play. Just wonderful, tragic, frustrating, sad, tedious and exquisite play. Have to say that FFL seems particularly sweet this morning.
