Why Are You Unhappy?

“Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9 per cent Of everything you think, And of everything you do, Is for yourself — And there isn’t one” - Wei Wu Wei

Noticed this Wei Wu Wei quote in Ken Wilber’s book (p.243) Grace and Grit about the death of his wife Treya. The quote tickled me - and there is none. How great. An invitation to freedom if there ever was one. I can cling a little too closely to my careful crafted self. It is nice to get a reminder that what we’re really engaged in here is a beautiful childhood game of make believe. Suppose this could swing to the depressing if one looked at it a certain way. I find it invigorating.

But comments are currently disabled while I work out some bugs and explore the feasibility and wisdom of implementing the Intense Debate comment system. I apologize for being a buzzkill, but they'll be back up soon. You can always contact me if your about to burst with a classic riposte or feel a pressing need to reach me.

Don't forget to snatch up this site's RSS Feed, which is probably the best method of becoming comfortable with the flow and tone of Griffin and Hoxie.

You may also use the search form below to shake out any specifics you may be after, and if that doesn't help then jump to the contact page and shoot me a note. I might be able to help.

Griffin and Hoxie is built on back of WordPress. I created this design starting from a version of a free theme I created some time ago with additional touches and inspiration from other sources. When we factor in the Inevitable Human Error (IHE)™, my propensity towards flaky behavior, and relative space-time fluctuations I cannot control, this joint is XHTML valid 87.75% of the time.

For the curious among us, jump to the Colophon page for a full reckoning of this site's internal architecture and various other colophonic goodies.
