In this respect it's unlike almost all other things we do except perhaps making music and dancing. When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4956</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58428]]></link><description><![CDATA[A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/58428</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You forget too much That every creature, female as the male,  Stands single in responsible act and thought  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61935]]></link><description><![CDATA[You forget too much That every creature, female as the male,  Stands single in responsible act and thought   As also in birth and death.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/61935</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I mumble a lot off-stage, I'm a mumbler.
