--------------------------  Added A Joke for the Day -----------------------

The Bug in the Program

Within a computer, sometime there is a section of the program call Bug.

The Bug is called the “I thought”.

The Bug may be executed in some part of the program. It becomes "I thought" and take over the controls of all thinking during the execution of that section of the program.

During that moment, the Bug (I thought) pretends to be that whole program. And, creates TREMENDOUS ERROR in the result.

None of the ERROR in the result is needed.

What is needed is simply to fix the Bug that pretends to be the whole program.

...........

IF we have not yet achieved the FULL SUCCESS of what we have Desire in the Mind, it means there are bugs hidden in some where in the mind….

Just like the Painter in the Joke!
