Sorry for the late reply, Padmja to your reequest; yes, please go ahead

My I say that, considering Chuang Tzu's ideas and philopshy,  these are words I imagine Chuang Tzu might say...They are not his exact words but it is fairly consistent with his philopshy....

Ah! Ah! That's a powerful one, Raj.

 I see what I see; 

 I sleep when people argue;
 I wake up when the wine flows

Allow me to use these words in my works (of course with your permission and due dedication to you) when I need them.

True, Raj ji!

I choose insight over ego, with no doubt....

Well said, Harry

Like Raj, 
I am not a lawyer.
Arguments 
Can really bore ya.
Logic's twists
Can really floor ya.
I prefer to be.

Wonderful comment and verse.  It is truly beautiful and well-written; do post it as a poem in your site. If you like, you can use the picture I have used of Chuang Tzu or  any picture  you  or not.

Wonderful words and thought, Krishnan Bala.

Dear Raj,
                   A slightly different take :

                   I weep when people argue for ego,

                   I sleep when the words have no meaning to go,,

                   I peep in to others mind,

                   When deep is their thought

                  To reap the shine that illuminate my brain

                  Which to me is the tastiest wine.    

                   
                  Regards.

excellent
and true...for many people words are a symbol of ego
they argue for argument sake
to boast of what they know
i would better keep my mouth shut
than to open it and show my ignorance!
