By Virtue of Release

The universe experiencing itself through me - me experiencing my experience of the universe. Zen.

If you can just appreciate each thing, one by one, then you will have pure gratitude - Suzuki Roshi -

Calmness

I'm struggling lately with calmness. Or the lack of calmness. What's the opposite? Tension, agitation, irritation, etc.

I know I can only find calmness in this present moment. Got to remember that. Stop searching for it elsewhere.
