zazen
i started meditating last night. after discussing with my mom the current/ongoing dissatisfaction i have about my relationships with others, she decided it must be something i'm doing. not to say she isn't right, she probably is, but who likes to hear that they're the one that needs fixing? class ended really early last night so i went to see the movie we have playing at the theater right now How to Cook Your Life. it's about applying zen buddhism to your cooking and in turn your life. Edward Espe Brown, the zen priest who's featured in the documentary, said some things that really struck a chord in me. that's when i decided i should start meditating. i've always wanted to, but i feel these things just happen when they need to.
