"Why, in Budhhism, is 'why' answered with silence"
Actually, that's a very good idea (are you Buddhist?). It's a great question hitting the heart and soul (ha) of Buddhism. But, unfortunately, for that very reason it's a popular topic and well-trampled ground. Good for an essay on Buddhism. Not good for an honors thesis.
In the end I guess you have to consider the goal and the path. Is the goal worth the pain of the path, or is the journey the true purpose? Which is ... unnecessarily metaphorical of me I suppose but still for me sums it up. :)
At this point I'm at a tie-up-your-camels moment: I have to turn in a 25-page proposal on Tuesday or fail the class.
