Likes & Dislikes

It is especially by our “likes and dislikes” that we cut ourselves off from the wider mind (and the wider world). Likes and dislikes are the lapdogs and guard dogs of the ego, busy all the time, panting and barking at the gates of attachment and aversion and thereby narrowing perception and experience

Strange Things Will Happen by Radio Dept.

“Strange things will happen” by Radio Dept. Appreciating the splendor of this simple song.

Today was a pretty day
No disappointments
No expectations on your whereabouts
And oh, did I let you go?
Did it finally show that strange things will happen if you let
them?

Today I didn’t even try to hide
I’ll stay here and never push things to the side
You can’t reach me cause I’m way beyond you today

Today was a pretty day
Autumn comes with
These slight surprises where your life might twist and turn
Hope to unlearn
Strange things will happen
If you let them come around and stick around

Today I didn’t even try to hide
I’ll stay here and never push things to the side
Today I didn’t even look to find
Something to put me in that peace of mind
You can’t touch me cause I’m way beyond you today
