Empty Boats

I just watched The Ring 2, not such a great movie. So I thought that I should explain my blog title. It is a Buddhist proverb, a man (or woman, I guess it doesn't matter) is rowing a boat and crashes into another boat. They turn around and yell at the driver of the other boat, you know "Watch where you are going, idiot!" That sort of thing. Okay, now imagine the same person is rowing a boat across the lake, enjoying the view, the serenity when wham! They hit something. They turn around, to find an empty boat. All of the boats are empty, there is never anything to get angry about because there is never anyone to blame. Now, about blaming yourself, I don't know but I suppose its possible. That is unless your boat is empty as well, but in the realm of choice that doesn't make much sense does it?
