I'm actually more of a Merlot, Cabernet or Pinot Noir, specially from Chile, kind of guy, though I would sure enjoy a Soave.

Because of various "your getting older" medications limiting the amount I can imbibe, (supposed to be zero)  sad I prefer ANY kind of Ice Wine I can find.

“To attain knowledge, add things every day; to attain wisdom, subtract things every day.”
~Lao Tzu

A very wise saying, echoed by TS Eliot in The Rock (1934):

Where is the Life we have lost in living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?

Quite true!

In this particular age we could add,

"Where is the information we have lost in data?

Where are the relationships we have lost in social networks?"

The price of material or external development. Let's just hope that internal development doesn't start too late.

When shelving the books in the library, zen is the only way to go.

You can't check all the spinal labels, your consciousness gets in the way, instead you have to be the conduit and let them flow through you. That way you can let your non-conscious mind do the work while you do something more useful like breathing.
