The was it is

I have grown a lot in the last few years. I have seen things with in the way i was living and had the time to make my self a better person. I am Zen Buddhist. I am the dread-locked Buddha in the making, but that does not mean i am not still Kat Bastard. I am still the same ass hole I was the last time you saw me, just a bit wiser, and a bit nicer. I seen the way i was living my life in the past was not only hurting me but a lot of the people around me. I lost a lot of the things I love for the way i was doing things. I have used the extra time I had to learn about my self and expand my knowledge. I am proud to say that i believe that i have made some awesome choices in the way i am going to live in the future. But I know that this life is hard and full of suffering, and I may trip and fall, but at least my eyes are that much more open.

This reminds me of the years of my eye opening moments when I realized every regrettable action and how mortified and remorseful I was. It was grueling and finally, my last big realization I was virtually on my belly on the floor. It was an incredible blessing to become so openly aware of myself. And now subsequently a watcher of my mind and conduct which I offer daily and hopefully always reflect the precepts and vows.

 

Thank you for your openness and honesty.

 

Here we are.

I hear you Elias and I wish you well on your journey.  And when you trip and fall get up and continue your journey.

Katman, because I don't use the B-word, Greetings:

You are not alone.  You are not alone in growing your power of compassion.  And you are not alone in struggling.

Thank you for speaking with those of us who aspire to grow like you.
