deep thoughts

One day Chuang-tzu and a friend were walking along a riverbank.
      “How delightfully the fishes are enjoying themselves in the water!” Chuang-tzu exclaimed.
      “You are not a fish,” his friend said. “How do you know whether or not the fishes are enjoying themselves?”
      “You are not me,” Chuang-tzu said. “How do you know that I do not know that the fishes are enjoying themselves?”

Hmmm. That is a deep thought. You just reminded me of my deep thought I was going to post as I thought about it on the drive home from work. :)
