For those more heady of us....superb paragraphs you've read, words put in a way that encourage you, lyrics that really resonate, poems, anything you come across that send a message you like, might be helpful to you, or anyone could go here. Song lyrics are as intoxicating as the beat sometimes. 
...or not. But I need a place to put these things instead of 'Random Thoughts."

Here's something I read today & enjoyed:
"When you immerse your attention into the peace that is the essence of this moment, you find that it is limitless. It is completely formless and that formless peace goes on forever.
The emptiness is so vast, so intoxicating, so fulfilling, there is no end to exploring it. I call it peace but the peace is synonymous with love, with bliss, with joy.
It is unfathomable joy!
And when you come out of that peace a little bit so that you are aware of form again, you find everything is vibrating this peace. The joy that is the essence of everything cannot contain itself. It must burst open and manifest into billions of forms.
And so every form is just made of this vibrating bliss. You can be walking in the woods and you can't imagine anything more fulfilling, more blissful than that walking.
So delicious!
But many people seem to settle for the words. Settle for some understanding of it, some idea of it, some little clever saying that makes your ego smile as you pass by in search for the next tidbit of knowledge.
It's like driving all the way to the ocean and not getting out of the car. Not feeling the sand on your bare feet, not feeling your body immersed in the dancing salt water waves. Just sitting in your air conditioned car with the windows up listening to talk-back radio. That's what dead people do!
This peace is beyond the words, beyond understanding, beyond all ideas and beliefs.
You not only have to do the work, you also have to get really get naked. Strip away all of your ideas and perceptions and dissolve into this moment full on. No half-assed intellectual consideration about how it fits in with what you know and who you think you are. You have to give it all up and dive into this moment.
It's so hard to even make any sense in this peace, because it is senseless, limitless joy. There is no comprehending it, no getting your head around the vastness of it. Yet the ego mind is always trying to put it into a box; something it can define and know and carry around like a lucky charm.
But how do you bottle up the ever expanding limitless joy that goes on forever?
You have to let everything dismantle into nothingness and dissolve into unfathomable peace. When there is no 'you' left in nothingness; when there is just the vacuum that is consciousness, then you will realize infinite joy. You will have become joy itself." K Mazuy
