I've been watching a lot of Buffy lately. Yes, that's correct, I'm 50 and also a BTVS fan, bigtime. What of it Seth?
Here's part of why I love the show: Buffy and crew usually don't know how they are going to deal with their challenges; hell, they don't even know how to deal with day to day life. To meet life and their challenges they:
- Are honest with themselves, although not necessarily always with each other.
- Practice every day; Buffy with her kick and punch and stake routine, Willow with her magics and meditation, etc.
- Rely on each other - so even when they are not honest with each other as a routine, when the hard times come, as they do every day in the form of external demons, they ask for help, they communicate from the heart.
- They have a big hairy audacious goal always in the forefront: Save the world.
Boddhisatvas for sure.
If you can just appreciate each thing, one by one, then you will have pure gratitude - Suzuki Roshi -
