Having just taken some pics of the big’uns eating a snack on the trampoline, I caught my reflection. . . and theirs.

255:

Be soft in your practice. Think of the method as a fine silvery stream, not a raging waterfall. Follow the stream, have faith in its course. It will go its own way, meandering here, trickling there. It will find the grooves, the cracks, the crevices. Just follow it. Never let it out of your sight. It will take you….
—Sheng-yen.

If you understand, things are just as they are… If you do not understand, things are just as they are….
—Zen Saying

Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Suffering follows an evil thought as the wheels of a cart follow the oxen that draws it. Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. Joy follows a pure thought like a shadow that never leaves.
—The Buddha

Have good trust in yourself — not in the One that you think you should be, but in the One that you are.
— Maezumi Roshi
