Light a stick of jasmine tonight
And I will light one too.
A stick shall burn near the sea,
And another near the mountains.
Is not jasmine the same scent for everyone?
Burn a tapering candle tonight
And I will burn a tapering candle too.

The Meaning and Purpose of Defiance
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Paul offers his views on the meaning and purpose of life.
THE CRITICS EJACULATE! “The Grand Fraud of Blogging American, Paul Sunstone, excretes his opinions about the meaning and purpose of life in what can only be considered a shameless act of public urination. Life is fully terrifying enough without the addition of his muddled and confused vision for embracing it. I must insist upon the return of the guillotine. I must insist upon the return of justice to our world.” — Aloyse Leblanc, Le Critique Passionné de Blog, “La Tribune Linville”, Linville, France.

THE CRITICS EXPLODE! “Sunstone needs to get laid. Politics to him is what sex is to the most naive nun on earth — whoever she may be. It is no more than a world of sins, venial sins, and deadly sins. It is a world that his delusional mind fearfully attempts to grasp with all the misconceptions of a pure virgin. But what fool would lay Paul Sunstone? Not I! And not you either! Sunstone merely needs to get laid, but he absolutely must be guillotined.” — Aloyse Leblanc, Le Critique Passionné de Blog, “La Tribune Linville”, Linville, France.
The Lyrics of “The River”, by John Andrew Hull (Manchester Orchestra)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Paul offers his personal interpretation of a few of the words to John Andrew Hull’s intimate, spiritual song, “The River”.

THE CRITICS EXPLODE: “Quite obvious to this astute blog critic, Paul Sunstone’s allegedly ‘personal interpretations’ of ‘The River’ are anything but genuinely personal. Sunstone channels the Devil himself to offer his readers purely demonic views that he then shamelessly fobs off as his own. To his claim ‘The River’ is grounded in a ‘Timeless Truth of Human Nature’, I am forced to retort: Timeless Sunstone!” — Merriweather Sterling, Blogs of the Day, “The Daily Burtie”, Berwick-Upon-Tweed, England, UK.

THE CRITICS HEART’S MELT! “Down at the Hartsel Cafe and Salon last Tuesday morning Stella Bailey and Libby Sommer got into it over coffee in a dispute that turned so fierce at times Hartsel’s most famous local celebrity, Ernest the Moosehead, looked about to fall crashing down from his place of honor on the the North wall above the table reserved on Thursdays for the Liar’s Club. I reckon no one in the whole of South Park Colorado honestly needs to be told the subject of the deafening uproar between the two normally soft-spoken and genteel ladies was none other than Mr. Wannabe Blogger, Paul “Fool” Sunstone. The ladies were trying to top each other in who could more objectively describe what an insufferable ass Sunstone is. Libby’s final position was that any one of Sunstone’s blog posts was just about as confused and messy as an elk sucked into a jet aircraft engine firing up on the runway of internet blogging. Stella snapped back that Sunstone’s post, “The Key in the Lock” transcended even a hamburgered elk for a confused mess, and could only be compared to the confused mess the infamous Fairplay Twister had made of Ivor Plumber’s strikingly original racoon-fur toupee. You’ll recall back in ’04, the Fairplay Twister came out of nowhere to inflict 16.4 million dollars of damage and in the process suck Ivor’s toupee right from his head. Suck it from his head in the very midst of one of his traditional Friday night courtships of Jane Basil, right along with a full half of her bodice. Ivor has ever since said, the memory of Jane’s exposed left bosom was the only thing that could ameliorate his profoundly felt sense of loss in the days ahead. Jane has been even more vocal on the subject than Ivor. She maintains that, had the tornado taken her maiden aunt’s hand-me-down chastity belt instead of her bodice, she and Ivor would be right shacked up today. Now back to Libby and Stella. In the coldly objective opinion of this blog critic, not one, but both ladies are right. Right in the sense that Paul Sunstone forever and eternally tops his inner ass with each and every new post of his. Sunstone has never taken so much as a single back-step in his relentless effort to destroy internet blogging once and for all. ‘The Key in the Lock to the Door of Life’ is in no way, shape, or form a back-step. Sunstone, the Contemptable Juggernaut of Confused Fools, ever remains true to his worthless self. Sorrowfully yours, Gunning Gus.” — Gus “Gunning Gus” Johnson, The Blog Critic’s Column, “Leper’s Gulch Gazette”, Leper’s Gulch, Colorado, USA.

Have a Great Woman’s Day, Boys and Girls Both!
Today, March 8th, is a day to strengthen and renew your commitment to the fair and equitable treatment of men and women worldwide. Hitch yourself to the goal of creating a world in which women and men, boys and girls, have the same economic, political, and social opportunities!
Women, do it for fairness, do it for the ones you love — but also do it for yourselves. Do it because living fully is living authentically, and no one who is subjugated to others can truly live fully or authentically.
Men, do it for fairness, do it for the ones you love — but also do it for yourselves. Do it because your lives are only impoverished when others lives are subjugated, and your lives are only enriched when others lives are liberated.
Humans are born to be free. All humans are born to be free.
Commit and recommit today!
