Be your path

Startup Roshi

Happy holidays! As we head into the new year, I wanted to share some of my own thoughts, hopes and dreams for 2019. Life is not a spectator sport and it is not a solo sport. It is a team sport, meant to be lived, loved and experienced with others. There is an African proverb. "If you travel alone you go fast. If you travel with others you go far.

A Zen master said that the Sangha (the community) is everything. And I have to come to see and believe that. We are strengthened by those we surround ourselves with.

"You cannot travel the path until you have become the path itself." - Buddha

"By your own efforts, waken yourself, watch yourself, and live joyfully. You are the master." - Buddha

As we wish 2018 goodbye, and bow for what it has taught us, we welcome 2019 and bow for what it will bring us.

Let us plant our hopes and dreams in the fertile soil of life, and cultivate and care for them, as we walk our path and become one with it.

Happy New Year! Thank you for joining me on my path and it is my honor to join you on yours. (Deep Bow)
