A Few Kurtisms To Chew On.....

I don't understand why people use bathroom deodorizers! All it does is makes it smell like someone took a shit in a rosebush!


Paranoia is a steady-state that persists independent of proof. The ego thrives on it!


Would those predisposed to boredom deem a longer lifespan good?


There is a legitimate way to shirk duties! Just say you will do it tomorrow! Because tomorrow is always tomorrow, paradoxically it is never tomorrow!


Do not overlook the profound wisdom in scrutinizing trivial things as this becomes a stepping stone to evaluating far bigger things!


There is at least a piece in each one of us in those we judge. As such, I recommend we think twice before doing so!


Do not be so quick to judge those that have had affairs. If all the judges out there did not have it in them to go on and do just the same, there would be far fewer affairs!


Be careful to distinguish forgiveness from consequences. Being forgiven does not mean consequences magically disappear!


It can be humbling and perhaps a bit traumatizing when it becomes evident that much of what you never questioned is actually insane!


I think the best answer for making the world a better place is to focus less around doing and more around becoming aware! Do not worry about doing as this will systematically follow awareness.

That Foul Smell?

Why does shit stink? I seriously pondered this thought as a believer in a wonderful, magnificent God. How could something so fetid, putrid and vile be reconciled to a perfect and pure God?

Perhaps God reveals abstractions to us through analogy? Possibly, shit's offensive nature is revealed in metaphor. In with the good, out with the bad. As we become more like Jesus, we take on good nature and purge bad nature. This is akin to putting pure things into our bodies and expelling impure things as excrement. 

Conversely, when looked at from an evolutionary point of view, one might ask whether shit is even stinky? How can it not be? It stinks! Well, apparently shit is paradise for dung beetles, flies, bacteria and animals large and small, including our canine companions. It appears shit is only stinky to us. Or maybe it is stinky to all of us but certain bugs, insects, bacteria and animals happen to like stinky things.

Ultimately, the fundamental nature of shit is relative in the following sense: either shit is 1) perceived as being shit to us and a gardenia to “them” or 2) shit is intrinsically stinky but “they” like stinky things.
