Anselm Hollo: Sitting in Peaceful Lamplight

.

Man Reading at Lamplight: Georg Friedrich Kersting, 1814 (Oskar Reinhart Collection, Winterthur)

reading a book on how to become a better person
Zophiel the cat touches my leg & asks me
"Why don't you write a book about becoming just a pretty good person
& by the way what happened to my late night snack?"

"Really, the fundamental, ultimate mystery -- the only thing you need to know to understand the deepest metaphysical secrets is this: that for every outside there is an inside and for every inside there is an outside, and though they are very different, they go together" -- Alan Watts
