The name Lobo means wolf and the origin of the name is Spanish. Then again it has a lot to do with the University of New Mexico. When the Lobo's come to town it usually means one of the sports teams have landed.

On my desk I have a picture of a "wolf" (No lobo pictures, except on this blog) with the words "feed the good wolf" on it. "Way back when"...................... I posted a story about "the good wolf and the bad wolf" inside each of us. The point was that the one that took control was the one that was fed. This all reminds me of a book I opened up yesterday that had a chapter titled "Zeal without Knowledge". It focused on the idea that we create ourself with each thought that we let go through our heads. Each of us has little choice but to "keep thinking" and the way our minds work is to move from one individual thought to another. The mind works with and focuses on whatever it is fed. Each choice of a thought expresses a preference and builds up the world we individually occupy. The conclusion of the chapter is that we create ourself. It also says that we can go a little overboard. Once we accept that we can "create ourself" we can become so focused on the process that the process itself is the overall goal. We become zealous in our foucs. Gaining real and lasting knowledge probably is a matter of choice rather than just a zealous desire. One can't hurry up and get smart, even if one chooses too........................ya think?
