3) And if that's true, why not?
4) How many times?
5) Did you enjoy it?
And finally,
6) Piglet as a metaphor for Peter Pan's Inner Child. Discuss.
1) haha. because they are wasted and have nothing but time.... those who use the time constructively reading, writing, learning, can make the mind perform without the inhibitations of social expectation, bias, god, ect.
im between 4-5 months clean right now... i think alot clearer now that that mess is over. the green nubs come from lack of hygiene, which even when i junkie i obsessed over (ones like that are RARE). so i never had that problem.
2) blue to is nobility. white is purity.
im pure now in comparison to the ways ive lived and seen others live, i do ironicly enough see blue in most good people i meet anymore... you notice they are far from pure but accepted the sins of the past and are noble creatures for it......
you can never lose hope for all of humanity, just realize its pointless for generations to come.
but if your going for the drug question of blue or white, white wins every single time.EVERY time.
3)i think thats kinda answered above. most people stay impure and go thru cycles of purity (never last long, hell mines ending now..).
4) as many as it takes.
5)everything everytime.
6)both have been used for books of zen, there is a publication called the "Tao of Pooh" i believe was the name...... (i know its parallel to zen but its on the same pretense and im going to draw its example in Zen...) piglet does crossreference childhood SOMEWHERE in this book (ive read it like 5 freakin times.....). well if piglet is the zen like essence of childhood, you could say that peter pan, since he commands the lost boys (isnt that the name?) was the zen like instrument they required to function, he was the essence they seeked... pooh required piglets childish views to function at his "peak"..... pan required the lost boys....
so zen/peak functionality = instrument+inspiration so zen/peak functionality = instrument+inspiration.
z/pf=pooh+piglet z/pf=pan+lost boys...
or pooh is to piglet as pan is to lost boys.
soooooo now that the theoreticals have been established:
the inner child of peter pan was best represented by the brainless actions of the lost boys, poohs only suboridanate in the realm of stupidity was piglet. these are the neccessary failing elements one must keep to hold the balance of inner child to rational thought since the essence of an inner child is purity with failure. the lost boys/piglet failed often thru their quests of exploration (behavior psy. would refer this as experimental/instinctive learning, ives een its called both..).....
see the parallel?
piglet shows a required naievty of failure often assoicated to an inner child.
peter pan makes no mistakes because he has the lost boys to explore options of failure... they get into trouble he bails em out...
piglet is a comparison of the lost boys as pooh needs piglet.......
boy that is mispelled and badly strung but you see it....
i think a better comparison thats MUCH more doable is comparing the zen motions of piglet to a lost boy and pooh to peter pan....
