Buddha would like to thank the lovely and wonderful Rhonda for rescuing me when she was coming back from her vacation. Now that I am back in my rightful place in the garden, I feel much better . . . except for this one dried up, ugly colored rose that keeps trying to get closer to me.

Rhonda, thank you for our lovely talk about my pinky, my nose, other parts of me that are not whole. I now know that I must live fearlessly and not worry about those parts that other people see as ugly, because I think I am beautiful.

Now . . .as for your man problems . . . .I say stick with what you know, and that's John Boy. Stan had amazing hands, yes, but he doesn kind of look like Dennis Miller . . .

Buddha would like to also say that if Cassie comes near me I am taking off, due to the little problem we had last time she was here of her trying to make me into a 'bobble-head' Buddha . . .

Peace be with you.
