My advice is, do not try to inhabit another's soul. You have your own.
Zen is the vehicle of reality.
You touch things lightly or deeply; you move along because life herself moves, and you can’t stop it.
I'm hoping to be astonished tomorrow by I don't know what.
The answer is always in the entire story, not a piece of it.
Barring love I'll take my life in large doses alone--rivers, forests, fish, grouse, mountains. Dogs.
