the buddhist way

attachments cause
suffering.
it's a Buddhist thing.
by attaching ourselves
to things
and people,
relationships,
jobs, possessions of all
sort we
set our selves up for
suffering. for a long hard
life of grieving
when people leave, when
things disappear,
when circumstances change.
attach yourself to nothing,
Buddha says and live
a content life.

but you know what, I love
my new comfy couch and my hi def
4k high resolution 55 inch tv
in my remodeled basement.
Football season is
right around the corner, so
it's too bad Buddha. not to mention
that Shelia is coming over
in her high heels
with a seven layer mexican
cheese dip and a blender full
of margaritas, so
sorry about that.
have a nice life with nothing
and no one you're attached to.
