It's about....
Buddhism isn’t about a retreat from reality into a kinder gentler world created in your own mind. It’s about making this world a better place by seeing it for what it is and doing what you truly need to do. - Brad Warner
From his blog Hardcorezen.
Perfect.

The evening.
re-entered my life after a somewhat lengthy absence. Always a good
thing.
I had a toilet epiphany today. I am afraid of just about everything.
Because of money. (Hopefully M won't read this.)
It makes me sad to think that there is a very good chance hat when I
take up the death bed, there will be possibly no one in the room with
me. If I go before M hopefully she will have someone to be with her. I
have only 1 sibling who is much older than I. My brothers have already
passed on. Both my parents are old. I have no neices or nephews. No
aunts or uncles. I do have a couple of cousins who are far away. I
think of this after seeing a room FULL of people this evening -
balloons, talking, energy, there must've been 10 people in this room.
It was a thing of beauty.
Time for me to continue rising above the suffering we are here for.
Love,

The power of anything at all.
6000 ft above sea level, smack in the middle of a snowball fight with
his twin 6 year old sons next to a 15 ft high mound of plowed snow
changed this. I got off the phone laughing. After a few moments still
laughing I realized I wasn't laughing about anything in particular at
all. It was just - joy. It's been 3 hours since my talk with Pete and
I am still laughing at just about anything. The only thing I can
figure is how present I was during that call. I felt like I was there.
Amazing. Presence.
Anything can trigger joy. For me personally, many things can
trigger sorrow too.
Stop trying to figure it out.
Flow with it all.
All of it.
