Saint augustine cries, lord i cannot love you, but come in and love yourself in me. according to saint paul, we must put off our own natural form and put on the form of god, and saint augustine tells us to discard our own mode of nature; then the divine nature will flow in and be revealed. saint augustine says, those who seek and find, find not. he who seeks and finds not, he alone finds. saint paul says, what i was, was not i, it was god in me.

Your problem is you don't understand what that word means. people think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that's what everyone wants. but a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that's holding you back, the person who brings you to your attention so you can change your life. a true soul mate is probably the most important person you'll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. but to live with a soul mate forever? nah. too painful. soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then they leave.

Golden eagles don`t mate with bald eagles, deer don`t mate with antelope, gray wolves don`t mate with red wolves. just look at domesticated animals, at mongrel dogs, and mixed breed horses, and you`ll know the great mystery didn`t intend them to be that way. we weakened the species and introduced disease by mixing what should be kept seperate. among humans, intermarriage weakens the respect people have for themselves and for their traditions. it undermines clarity of spirit and mind.

My parents were hippies, and the story is that they went through a dictionary looking for a beautiful word to name me. they nearly called me banyan, but flipped a few pages on and reached "china," thankfully. the other reason they liked it is that "china" is cockney rhyming slang for "mate." people say "my old china," meaning "my old mate," because "china plate" rhymes with "mate.

I don't think i'm wrong when i say that the most beautiful objects of the "stone age" were made of skin, fabric, and especially wood. the "stone age" ought to be called the "wood age." how many african statues are made of stone, bone, or ivory? maybe one in a thousand! and prehistoric man had no more ivory at his disposal than african tribes. maybe even less. he must have had thousands of wooden fetishes, all gone now.
