• The hungry beast looks to grasp every fleeting thought or memory and says, "This is me!" And sometimes I believe it. Well most of the time. Pah! Let me turn this beast into a BE-ast. And perhaps remember, "There's no I in beast." Argh! I've become infected with Zen humour!

• How easy it is to find excuses! If we stay just few steps behind our teacher, we'll always be playing 'catch up'. We'll always be preparing. We'll never actually have to do anything. We can always see ourselves as not quite ready. Perhaps even not quite worthy. We will, in truth, never get anywhere. Why not just stay home instead? Might as well for all the good we're doing. And round we go again. So we can fool ourselves.
