Holy Batman Robin... Pink Floyd is awesome!!!! I had a near holy experience just listening to them.

Perhaps I should have been born in the 60s (well, technically I was but it doesn't really count being the last few months of it and all).

Somethings been gnawing at me all day. Earlier, while at work, a partner walked up to me and began asking me questions regarding one of the attorneys. Because I don't have an office and I sit in a secretarial cube, more and more of this is happening. Is so and so available? Are they in a conference? Do you know if so and so is on the phone. I've been really wondering why this is bothering me so much. I hate to say the words "Well, I don't deserve to be treated like a secretary... I've worked too hard to be a professional." Because really I don't feel that way...secretaries work their asses off. I know, I did that too. After a lot of soul searching this evening I discovered, I think, what it is... it's that whole balance thing again. I used to live in a world where everyone was equal. In trying to teach your children about equality, you tend to be equal. I've forgotten what it's like to live in a world where the good old boy in the suit, dark wood paneled walls is the guy who starts at the top... and everyone, the female lawyer, the gay lawyer, the black lawyer, the this lawyer, the that lawyer, to the "lowly" paralegals, to the file clerks, to the copy clerk... they get treated with that disrespect. I just happen to rail against it because I've been out of this world for so long. I either accept it or I don't -- we all know swimming upstream only goes so far before those big heavy mahogany doors just close. Frankly, I'm not sure I can but we'll see. No more talking.... (or whining).... more doing.

After the mesmerizing experience with Pink Floyd, I read Light on The Sutras... WOW... I don't think I've read the sutra on asana before (or perhaps I just wasn't paying attention because I'm sure I've read the whole thing before).. what a wonderful explanation. WOW.
