Good Morning Thinkers!

Whykus for You

Thanks to everyone who played the whyku game! We took a very great liberty with some thoughts of great people and, without changing the words, converted them into whykus. We hope they won't mind.

From Plato:
Ideas are mystical essences or beings,
manifested as symbols in this world,
and brought to life through art.
Why?

From Einstein:
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Knowledge is limited.
Imagination encircles the world.
Why?

From Jesus:
If you bring forth what is within you,
what you bring forth will save you.
If you do not bring forth what is within you,
what you do not bring forth will destroy you.
Why?

From: Anne Robinson, anniecreate@hotmail.com
Whyku-haikus - incredible concept! Here's one for starters:

IDENTICAL TWINS
In ensuing years one wins
The other loses.
WHY?

From: McSusan4@aol.com
Life is good,
Living is grand,
Negative news
across the land.
WHY?

So much pain, so much sorrow,
No one's promised tomorrow.
Yet the bird's still sing.
WHY?

From: "STRAKER,DAVID (A-England,ex2)", david_straker@agilent.com
The map is not the territory,
But it is at the center
of the known universe.
Why?

Abee see de Effigy?
So let her zee
Half a bet
Y?

Understand
Love
Create
Why not?

From: "Lisa Dominy (LEWISON)", ldominy@microsoft.com
How to find my true path and highest good?
Follow the flow and rhythm of life
Knowledge of self is where to begin.
The answer lies inside.
Why?

An innovative company that changed the world
cannot see the forest in the trees
one who see's the vision of how it should be.
Why?

From: JBrons@aol.com
My mind chatters now
Ceaselessly wandering away
To what, to where?
Why?

From: tflowers, tflowers@keller.clarke.edu
To walk away from something,
brings you closer to something else.
Why seek what is possible there?
Why?

From: James Harris, jamesh@wrq.com
Ooooh tempt me! Here are a couple of quickies:
Pager in the night,
Internet Plumbing Problem,
Part of Something Great?

Part of something new,
Internet grows day by day,
Evolving the word?

Technology morphs,
Video killed Radio,
What do you listen to in the car?

OK the last one is not pure but you know what I'm getting at.
