why am i such a child?


also must mention i finally finished Eat, Pray, Love (which means I did nothing on my portfolio--but I'm not going to bed until i finish my lessons section) and it was WONDERFUL!



wanted to share this quote especially... it really struck me (among so many others)

Ketut went on to explain that the Balinese
believe we are each accompanied at birth by four invisible brothers, who come
into the world with us and protect us throughout our lives. When the child is in
the womb, her four siblings are even there with her--they are represented by the
placenta, the amniotic fluid, the umbilical cord, and the yellow waxy substance
that protects an unborn baby's skin... The child is taught from the earliest
consciousness that she has these four brothers with her in the world wherever
she goes, and that they will always look after her. The brothers inhabit the
four virtues a person needs in order to be safe and happy in life: intelligence, friendship, strength, and (I love this one) poetry. The brothers can be called upon in any critical situation for rescue and assistance. When you die, your four spirit brothers collect your soul and bring you to heaven. (p. 251)
