It is the unlimited father and mother of all limited things. Therefore, to see beyond all boundaries to the subtle heart of things, dispense with names, with concepts, with expectations and ambitions and differences. Tao and its many manifestations arise [...]]]> http://brianbrownewalker.com/2012/02/01/20568/feed/ 0 http://brianbrownewalker.com/2012/02/01/20561/ http://brianbrownewalker.com/2012/02/01/20561/#comments Wed, 01 Feb 2012 10:21:28 +0000 Brian http://brianbrownewalker.com/?p=20561 I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.

Totally fascinated by the realm of the senses, it swings from one desire to the next, one conflict to the next, one self-centered idea to the next. If you threaten it, it actually fears for its life.
