RIP: Stella Stevens (1938-2023) As a kid, The Poseidon Adventure was one of my favorite movies, and she was fantastic as the former Call-girl who married the cop (Ernest Borgnine), who kept busting her until she would say yes. I can still hear his cries of anguish. #poseidonadventure #stellastevens #RIP #disaster #classic #1970s https://www.instagram.com/p/Coz9SWyJrnn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Introverts Are More Likely To Use The Internet, Says Research
Personality is one of the most studied areas of psychology, and it has been applied to many aspects such as employment, emotion and behaviour. Conversely, internet usage is so new that it’s barely been researched. But there are some studies out there around it, and some of those studies look at how personality affects internet usage. Here are six interesting findings that have come out of this research.
1 : High neuroticism is related to more social media use, but overall less internet use
Neuroticism is an interesting personality trait in relation to its relationship with internet usage. It also serves as a good example of why “internet usage” might be too broad a term. Correa, Hinsley and de Zuniga (2010) looked at how neuroticism related specifically to social media usage (for example, blog use or…

May we all be faithful to our own plot of land. May we love without getting tired. And may we practice resurrection.
“The Bells of Ordinary Time”
(via settledthingsstrange)
Excerpt: “Perhaps there are two things to take from this. First, the way to holiness is unique to every person; it is possible to pray in the midst of everyday demands. Otherwise, how short would be the list of saints! Thomas Merton writes, “But what a hopeless thing the spiritual life would be if it could only be lived under ideal conditions!”

Bliss is a thing which is always there and is not something which comes and goes. That which comes and goes is a creation of the mind.

A Few Words on the Soul by Wislawa Szymborska
We have a soul at times.
No one’s got it non-stop,
for keeps.
Day after day,
year after year
may pass without it.
Sometimes
it will settle for awhile
only in childhood’s fears and raptures.
Sometimes only in astonishment
that we are old.
It rarely lends a hand
in uphill tasks,
like moving furniture,
or lifting luggage,
or going miles in shoes that pinch.
It usually steps out
whenever meat needs chopping
or forms have to be filled.
For every thousand conversations
it participates in one,
if even that,
since it prefers silence.
Just when our body goes from ache to pain,
it slips off-duty.
It’s picky:
it doesn’t like seeing us in crowds,
our hustling for a dubious advantage
and creaky machinations make it sick.
Joy and sorrow
aren’t two different feelings for it.
It attends us
only when the two are joined.
We can count on it
when we’re sure of nothing
and curious about everything.
Among the material objects
it favors clocks with pendulums
and mirrors, which keep on working
even when no one is looking.
It won’t say where it comes from
or when it’s taking off again,
though it’s clearly expecting such questions.
We need it
but apparently
it needs us
for some reason too.
– translated from the Polish by Stanislaw Baranczak and Clare Cavanagh

You don’t have to say anything.
You don’t have to teach anything.
You just have to be who you are:
a bright flame
shining in the darkness of despair,
a shining example of a person
able to cross bridges
by opening your heart and mind.
Tsoknyi Rinpoche
