Actions on the other hand...<br />Each one of us move at our own pace in our Go board. Oh, I want to do so many things, read so many books, I have so many components inside the drawers in my atelier that I would need to live four or five life times as long as this one to make a dent. <br /><br />My spirituality is my refuge. I think in silence most of the time, meditating takes many forms, and somehow to let my mind go wherever it wants is fine for me. Some times I am convinced that just getting things done and feeling that twinge of accomplishment is as, if not more valuable to my peace of mind than one hour trying to open the door to the path to Nirvana.

BUT, even so, I have actually been able to do it every day, at least once, for this last month. Not twice a day as I would like to, but at least once. No you're not.

I am going to take a trip by myself rather than be held hostage on a boat with a bunch of strangers and cheesy entertainers crowding every moment and thought as well as head waiters and sub waiters and cabin boys and maids and all the other staff demanding daily tips that total more than the cost of a hotel room in Manhattan.
