Becoming…being….living…… “As if…………..”

~

~
I’ve been pondering some ideas and creating visual “pages,”
with the positive intention of “guiding myself along…”
Created after reading some amazing ideas,
originally from Confucius and other great Chinese thinkers,
in a very thought-provoking blog entry:
“The Importance of Breaking Free….of Yourself”
by Michael Puet, a Harvard professor, and Christine Gross-Loh

The ideas above evolved out of ideas I was exploring and feeling astounded by, after reading this amazing blog entry, by Micheal Puett, a professor at Harvard  and Christine Gross-Leh:

“The Importance of Breaking Free of…. Yourself”

As if Importance of Breaking Free of Yourself~

Their book:  “The Path”

As if The Path by Michael Puet and Christine Gross-Loh

Continuing thoughts…….hmmmmm………???? 

How about…. “as if……..”     becoming…….. a verb????

Instead of ….
“being….”   “becoming….”   “living…..”

Instead of….
“I’m”  being….   “I’m”  becoming…”    “I am …….”

How about……
I’m “as if-ing………….”


Or perhaps…
since the perceived sense of
a fixed, permanent “I” is being disputed,
how about….????
…..simply…..

“as if-ing………………………………………………”
