I believe that if we are honest with ourselves, that the most fascinating problem in the world is “who am I?” What do you mean? What do you feel when you say the word “I, myself”? I don’t think there can be anymore fascinating preoccupation than that because it is so mysterious. It is so elusive. Because what you are in your inmost being escapes your examination in rather the same way you can’t look into your own eyes without a mirror, you can’t bite your own teeth, you can’t taste your own tongue and you can’t touch the end of one finger with the same finger. That is why there is always an element of profound mystery in the problem of who we are. - Alan Watts (via crewcuts)

I have never been a serious person…. I am not serious at all because existence is not serious. It is so playful, so full of song, so full of music, and so full of subtle laughter. It has no purpose; it is not business-like. It is pure joy, sheer dance, out of overflowing energy.” ~~

~”If one really wants to live life in all its richness, one has to learn how to be inconsistent, how to be consistently inconsistent.. how to be able to move from one extreme to another — sometimes rooted deep in the earth and sometimes flying high in heaven, sometimes making love and sometimes meditating. And then, slowly slowly, your heaven and your earth will come closer and closer, and you will become the horizon where they meet.”
