A Quote by Joseph Jaworski

When you are not the doer how can the attachment happen? You do a small thing and you become attached. You say, "I have done this."

That's what Tilopa means by being loose and natural.

And we should forget, day by day, what we have done; this is true non-attachment. And we should do something new. To do something new, of course we must know our past, and this is alright.

But the future is the future, the past is the past; now we should work on something new.

Recently my life has taken on *form* Something is waiting. I am waiting. Soon, it will stop waiting – any day now. Awful things can happen any time. This is the awful thing.
It's not that I don't want to be a beauty, that I don't yearn to be dripping with glamour.

We've kinda branched out here and there - we've done a rap thing, we've done a rap-rock thing, we've done something with Angelo Belmonte, who's the primary composer of Twin Peaks.

It's a waste of time to think about what I should have done and what I didn't. I really believe in that. That's how I react to the if-onlys of life.
