Weekend Zen, April 22-23

We end up stumbling 

our way through the forest, 

never seeing all the unexpected 

and wonderful possibilities

 because we're looking for the idea

of a tree, instead of appreciating

 the actual trees in front of us.

Daily Zen - Tuesday, June 1

We end up stumbling our way 

through the forest, never seeing 

all the unexpected and wonderful 

possibilities and potentials because 

we're looking for the idea of a tree, 

instead of appreciating the 

actual trees in front of us.
