Always. <br />And Mon hit it on the head. I think. In acceptance we can see that truly: "it's ok."<br />And I never got a whole lot from Buddhism either. I was a yoga teacher for many years and a student of yoga for almost 20 years and I look back and laugh at so much of the "stuff" (that's my nice word) that gets impressed upon a person when they choose to go down that path of education. <br />I think a lot of it actually can take one away from the whole point- to live more simply. <br />Yeah, I was never more ego- absorbed and confused than when I was trying to follow someone else's idea of "religion."<br /><br />XO<br />CLady Cordeliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08460301461275849055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6302946617589211734.post-67895386968324435452012-01-26T15:01:00.461-05:002012-01-26T15:01:00.461-05:00You are so right, Mon!
