    Thanks Carol!

    I'm packing my sunglasses and swimming costume so it's a dead cert that temperatures will now plunge to a new low for our Italian job.

    Love,

                  Speak for yourself.

                  I haven't got fleas or troubles and I have no intention of creating either in my mind.

                  But each to his/her own.

                    Hello Caz,

                    maybe you are not understanding the meaning.
                    It is not superficial .. as you make out.

                    In reality, a 'trouble' is anything ..not necessarily
                    something negative .. a ripple of any disturbance
                    (any thought) to the true peace of mind.

                    "But what we have not got, we shall create in our minds" ..
                    meaning our mind is really like a calm peaceful ocean,
                    all the waves (ups and downs, good and bad, thoughts and feelings)
                    are all self created.

                    Possibly the writer of that verse from a poem, did not really know
                    the full extent of what they wrote at the time.
                    But in truth we all know everything (about reality).. we just need to
                    be still enough to access that knowledge.
                    This simple verse is a pointer to truth.

                    Peace and love,
                    Victoria
                    ps. Enjoy your holiday!

                          Hi Victoria,

                          Maybe you don't know what being 'flippant' means?

                          When I'm in the pub I prefer being flippant to being lectured.

                          My fault - I just chose the wrong bar stool that time.

                          See ya soon!

                          Love,

                          Caz
