Be well, all else is..

Thanks Tzu, that all makes perfect sense to me and it aligns with my experience as well.
I can see that i can suspend the thinking process (although i prefer spontaneous suspension) and I can see that i cannot breathe water so i feel that I cannot exist there............Thanks again......James
