the comic spirit

tthank God for 'our'(?) humour and playfulness
there is a worng and very questionable faith
 in our owned and assumed intelligence

i can expect to get insight and fluid associative truth in a children's book like
Claude in the City as i can in some heavy tomb(tome) on the car engine

exposition on the bible or zen and the comis spirit by conrad Hyers

i noticed when searching for the cover image some additional words to the title of the book that was part of a parcel of books i exchanged for money and then purchased the fruit of the spirit bible i gave away to my brother
the stream must flow and new covers come the additional words were the laughing buddha

...........back to the need to play


the open university were once wise enough to create an interdisciplinary course entitled art and environment
it included humour dreaming theatre technology the invitation to make intuitive leaps and to evovlve designs byu viewing from function as well as from having ideas by using materials TAD 292 Art & Environment


Jesus did not do things quite like anybody else playfully?
humouously? The serious jesus was both gentle and deliberate.
MMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm.


Oh sat next to an overheated radiator and it is Sunday morning
at 10 to 7
looking for associative play
this set of keys can select images and video clips muscia nd a whole host of whole earth catalgoue stuff
i suppose that is what became of it ebay is the whole earth catalogue


now  then wehere am or was i and who too

you know i wake up and i am going to be a spring board of insights to share and a brand new idea to enjoy and share
soon friends will enable me to own a piano and like the keyboard and pump organ the keys will make transient sounds that will not record but will feed enhance my playful world like several cups of tea with its ceremony and lack of ceremony its communion and it isolation


i will play minimal bass in urc whilst my sons' bassess reamin quiet perhaps a very short distance away would that they would gey out of their sleeping bags and join me yet sucha quick switch in context for his fingers rooting in c to more latreral rhythms may not feel comfy in the new dance steps like me they would need to want to dive in feeling there is a reason to dive in for and the church is not a playground?

oh suffer little and big children to come untop me

d.w. winnicott's playing and reality got a mention in my univeristy dgreee thesis

so then i am doing my morning pages they themselves are an art object a transitonal location of shared ownership with a space made avaialable by socail advancement through technology and the intuitive artistic/creative nurturing of the 'blog' something i can do within a shared open space an open univerality and i pray like the lymph system that runs to and thorugh the milk to humna man kindness is a shared font and a released toy for the world box of transitional objects for us to mutually discover uncover purpose and shared joy

American King James Version And said, Truly I say to you, Except you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. American Standard Version Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary18:1-6 Christ spoke many words of his sufferings, but only one of his glory; yet the disciples fasten upon that, and overlook the others. Many love to hear and speak of privileges and glory, who are willing to pass by the thoughts of work and trouble. Our Lord set a little child before them, solemnly assuring them, that unless they were converted and made like little children, they could not enter his kingdom. Children, when very young, do not desire authority, do not regard outward distinctions, are free from malice, are teachable, and willingly dependent on their parents. It is true that they soon begin to show other dispositions, and other ideas are taught them at an early age; but these are marks of childhood, and render them proper emblems of the lowly minds of true Christians. Surely we need to be daily renewed in the spirit of our minds, that we may become simple and humble, as little children, and willing to be the least of all. Let us daily study this subject, and examine our own spirits.
