Food and clothes sustain
Body and life;
I advise you to learn
Being as is.
When it's time,
I move my hermitage and go,
And there's nothing
To be left behind.

Layman P'ang, quote, nothing to be left behind
Food and clothes sustain
Body and life;
I advise you to learn
Being as is.
When it's time,
I move my hermitage and go,
And there's nothing
To be left behind.

now, my
associations on the meaning of adaptation for inter-being with others
when adaptation is called intelligence:
there will be always someone to define the way i 'should' adapt
and who will call me stupid when i don't follow the same way.
therefore it is important to observe exactly the process of adaptation:
do i adapt or am i adapted?
to adapt to change in life and processes,
new possibilities and ways, yes, when we can appreciate them
or/and when we don't have a choice.
it is not a general must, we don't have to walk all ways 'one' goes,
we must make our own choices.
to accept others does not mean to accept all happening to us.
to compromise is different from adapting but goes along with it,
the degree of tolerance varies with mutuality.
and there are other solutions to adaptation:
when i ride a river in a boat unsuitable for going down rapids,
i take it to land and walk.
i change to other ways of moving and to another territory.
this is why i prefer the second quote for many a moment in life.
it is change seen from a point of freedom meaning open ways.
of course, with unfavourable and unchangeable conditions
such as having to live in a wheel chair the first quote hits home.
A Raft Of Penguins, Ian Anderson
A raft of penguins on a frozen sea.
Expectant faces look down on me.
Shuffle uneasy. The whistler plays.
Counting eleven, they begin to pray.

Tenuous but clinging, the missing link
Joins us, closer than we might think.
Some half remembered coarse jungle drum
A naked heart-beat, trill and hum.

Each symphony, a sum of parts.
Each overture, a sweet foreplay.
Lets crash and burn some other day.

Bonded in terror or suspicion deep
Tentative tiptoe or giant leap
Call down the angels to guide them in
A raft of penguins take to the wing.

David Gilmour, Sonnet 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
P. Vasks ,Dolcissimo (Live)

Frederic Mompou ,Charmes (Adolf Pla, piano)
i suffered too much loss and i deserve better.
my blood floods waste land,
my soul cannot saturate all this dry soil.
i am tired of it, a certain melancholic boredom fills the room,
i feel desolate in the void
until i hear music inside.
why do they clap so hard? to hear themselves?
Federico Mompou,Impresiones Intimas, (Luis Angel Martínez - Piano)
under inquisition i answered delicate questions.
i cannot ask them.
inquisition is the other side of indifference.
inquisition does not answer, only ask.
curiosity is the other side of discovery.
my observations are more and more extra-terrestrial,
i start to feel more comfortable out too.
obscurity is the veil of cowardice learned
and means land's end in fog.
there is nowhere to go but to be.
