Zen master and a little boy

Clip from the movie Charlie Wilson War

There's a little boy and on his 14th birthday he gets a horse... and everybody in the village says, "how wonderful. The boy got a horse" And the Zen master says, "we'll see." Two years later, the boy falls off the horse, breaks his leg, and everyone in the village says, "How terrible." And the Zen master says, "We'll see." Then, a war breaks out and all the young men have to go off and fight... except the boy can't cause his legs all messed up. and everybody in the village says, "How wonderful."
Now the Zen master says, "We'll see."

i heard that this is a taoist story, but since zen is taoism plus buddhism i guess it doesn't matter much

And so began Islamic Radicalism, and the Cold War never ended.....

Words to live by. An important thought process to remember.

All this talk, all this coming and going, what a waste ! I have already said too much...

They fucked up the end game then, just as they are fucking the end g5ame up up now.

Everyone realizes the "religion of peace" commands their followers to either convet the infidel or kill the infidel......right?

I know, I know......we need to be PC.

Yeah, that sure has gotten us far. People act as though 911 was the first islamic terror attack and it will be the last.

So long as America shows a limp dick liberal bleeding heart tolerance, they will all be understanding.
