109.Banalities are the light and mundane touches to life. They do not
make the larger picture but they assist in completing it.
110.Sleep?s a cure and a disease.

Sleep?s a willing servant and a
temptor.
Sleep clears the mind and muddles the head.
111.What we perceive as tools of leisure are another?s tools of trade.
112.There are people. There are names. We are known by them. We
build them, we besmirch them. We create and alter them. We are proud
or embarrassed of them. We remember or forget them. We honour,
ridicule, criticise or dishonour them. We play with them, use, abuse and
share them.

lived, breeds strength and calm nurtured by mastery of terror and
vulnerability.

future matter more.
115.At times we have to clear the conscience that we have expended
our most fervent efforts.
116.Sometimes the passage to comprehension is to derive first hand
experience. Sometimes it is done through other sources. In any method,

When there is craving there is desire.
When there?s madness and

complex or simple, matters not. Whether one sees the pattern of
