And I want to thank you very deeply for a post you made in…December? where you quoted a passage from a Zen text, a passage about being with greens in a good way when you’re cooking. Your post was my doorway into finding a Soto Zen sangha here in Seattle and I’ve been sitting with them since the beginning of January. First time in this life with a real spiritual home! Amazed and grateful. And I’ll always have a special place for you in my mind as your post opened that major doorway.
(Also: that poetry anthology looks great! Congratulations on that front, too!)
congratulations Kenzen!
Thank you, Tom!
