Wow man, my thoughts exactly! I've often thought about how human beings are so consumed with their politics, religion, baseball teams, friends/enemies, and millions of other little things, we lose sight of the big picture. It's incredible really; since the dawn of time human beings have dreamt of world peace.... and we could do it anytime we want! If only we dropped out petty little concerned, if only for now, and wanted it at the same time.



i am a taoist, with a general interest in eastern thought
That's cool nightlight, I'm a buddhist with a general interest in Taoist thought. I've studied confucianism briefly, but it doesn't seem to go deeply enough for my taste. Are there any informative Taoist websites you'd recommend?
