"But what," badgers a relentless voice, "exactly are you doing out here? What are you accomplishing? What are you getting out of it? And what, oh especially what are you going to do with your life?"

The voice usually stops me. Knocks me down, kicks sand in my face. But this time, finally, I tell the voice to shut up. It's a stupid question, what are you going to do with your life. Setting out to do something with your life is like sitting down to eat a moose. Nobody ever did anything succussfully with their life. Instead they did something with their day. Each day.

Sunrise is birth. Sleep is death. Each day is your life.

Let the moose run. Eat some blueberries.

Two week vacation

Hi everybody,
I'm out of Dhaka and have been recently inspired to seek out a guru.
I'm in a town called Kustia right now. Meeting interesting people. No Guru's. Lot's of music. Got diarrhea and am recovering. Trying to be present and accepting but found my patience really low while sick.
Should be back in Dhaka in a week or so. I won't be using internet much for the time being.
Peace and presence,
Kelly
