New England Fog

Today there was a fog that lasted from New Hampshire to Connecticut but it was fitting as it symbolized well the state of my mind after two days with little time for reflection. In many ways, interruptions like this are good for me as they serve to remind me just how precious the practice is and how it depends on just the right mix of conditions. It’s relatively easy to forgot that we may never have the opportunity to practice again when we are comfortably ensconced in our daily routines with no pre-planned end in sight. It’s funny that this holds true even in the face of the truth of the dictum anicca vata sankhara. May we never take for granted our opportunity to make merit and be heedful. Sukhita hontu!
