It is hard to think consciously about Buddhism when on the road. When spending the night in a wrecking yard and clearly observing illegal activity and trying very hard to prevent the dogs from barking and announcing our presence, one does not think of Buddhism. This must be the acid test of ability to practice in life what is believed in theory.
Why was I spending a couple of nights in a junk yard? It is a very long story.
Life is so interesting. It is hard not being attached to it!
My camera was destroyed when I was caught in a soaking rain storm, so I have no picture.
When I am through visiting family and friends, I will seek out a warm, peaceful, safe spot to spend at least a week meditating and practicing my painting and taking the dogs for long walks and seeking wisdom.
I think seeking wisdom is like looking for America.
