Something to think about from Alan Watts

Accidental Poet



For when a man

no longer confuses himself

with the definition of himself

that others have given him,

He is at once

Universal and unique.

~ Alan Watts ~

  • Doggerel Dave

    Zen then?
    Bought the sixties back as if there were no intervening years.

    • Accidental Poet

      Thanks Dave, but I can't take any credit for this one. I'm just an admirer of the words of Alan Watts.

      • Doggerel Dave

        Yes, AP I'm aware this was a quote and not your original work. It's just that I haven't heard or seen the name Alan Watts for nigh on fifty years.
        Not going to make a habit of this, though, are you?

        • Accidental Poet

          Alan Watts has been a habit of mine for just about 50 years now.

          • Doggerel Dave

            Thanks - for me I enjoyed the nostalgia.

            • Accidental Poet

              Dave, for those like you & I this is a trip down memory lane. And the younger ones a small history lesson.

              • Doggerel Dave

                I hope they get it, AP.

                • Accidental Poet

                  Don't hold your breath on that one. ; )

                  Very true AP.
