Stepbacks
When I stepped back from my anguish
I found aversion.
Behind that
I found fear,
But, behind that fear
I found peace.
Behind that peace
Was void,
But, behind that void
Was indescribable.
Practice Discoveries
Practice makes preaching difficult.
Fortunately, when you practice,
preaching is no longer necessary.
“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities. In the expert’s mind there are few.”
--Shujnryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind
Letting Go a Little
I sat thinking,
‘I can’t do this anymore,’
but then suddenly it occurred to me,
‘Well then, stop!’
This produced a smile,
followed by a giggle.
