Sittin' in front uh any electric tube o' screen 'sessively be not some

Yes, we kin spend some uh our life doin' it, but if we wish t'live
some baaaad life we need t'get out some little.
What it is, Mama! Many clunker addicts are plum 'shells uh a human'
wid glazed eyes, jimmey gappin' mouds and hunched backs sittin' all
day in front uh an electric box lookin' fo' de answa' to some happy
life when all uh de time da damn answa' is widin us.
It much easia' to fantasize about sump'n else dan stay in de hear and
now isn't it? Instead uh writin' about some fantasy life, we kin go
create some real life, a life we kin be proud of. What it is, Mama!
I try and catch mah'self when ah' practice dis escapism and wo'k
t'brin' my doughts back t'de present. Wheneva' de fantasy starts ah'
check t'see whut ah' am escapin' fum? Why do ah' fixate on sump'n else
instead uh where I'm at?
De Tibetan Buddhists use da damn tool uh meditashun - meditashun on
dead as an 'esercise t'help dem live wid gratitude and peace in de
present. Dey meditate on de fact dat dead be certain t'all livin'
wahtahmelluns and da damn time uh deir dead be also uncertain. 'S
coo', bro.
Dis helps dem t'live each moment in some way dat gots'ta give dem some
baaaad dead o' transishun into some new reincarnashun. Dead could
mosey on down as ya' eyeball dis o' next year, but soona' o' lata' our
day gots'ta come. What it is, Mama!
We kin develop some higha' awareness and gratitude fo' our life and
all dat it contains at dis real moment once we accept dese facts and
treasho' nuff how fragile life be and da damn gift we gots' been
given. 'S coo', bro.
And even as we lay dyin' someday we kin die peacefully by practicin'
grateful acceptance fo' havin' de oppo'tunity t'gots' lived some life
at all. Once we accept dead peacefully we kin move on and need less
din's t'distract and blind us.
Developin' some list uh positive time fillers wuz some big-ass help
wid mah' addicshuns. As Do'eau wrote in Walden , "De devil finds wo'k
fo' idle hands."
Befo'e 'haidin' in dis new direcshun, most uh my time wuz occdownied
by whut t'steal next, overeatin' rich foods and gittin' fat and when
ah' wants'ed some boogie fum dat ah' had some picnic hoop uh oda'
addictive areas t'get drugged down wid.
Peace out,
V (ain' no bitch)
a baaad mutha' hush yo' mouth
and we can dig it
EA#deuce, baby!
