Beginners tip:

Mastodon does not have an algorithm, rather you see posts on a timeline.
Which means your favourite posters can get lost downriver pretty quick.

Make a LIST and call it ‘A-List’ (or something) and add you most favourite posters to it.

Now you can easily catch up on the good stuff.

Here i am at my (inner) room enjoying a blank sheet .. everything is possible -

I walk a middle path between extremes, staying grounded in the present moment rather than becoming lost in future fears or past grievances. Above all, I extend loving-kindness to everyone affected by these changes—including myself.

My Zen practice isn’t an escape from difficult realities but a way to engage with them with wisdom, compassion, and purpose.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Will I ever master the ranunculud?

With a few deep breaths, welcome yourself to this moment.

Open up your field of awareness, observing with a fresh set of “eyes”, everything that is passing through your mind.

Allow each thought to simply come and go. Becoming an objective observer of your mind allows you to find the space between you and your inner thoughts.

Today, I commit to approaching everything with a beginner’s mind.

I choose to enter the day with wonder.

I choose to open myself to new possibilities.

I choose to remain curious.

I choose to notice details I don’t normally see.

I choose not to compare what I am experiencing to previous experiences.

“If the mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything. In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few.”

Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind; p. 21.

"Thinkers through the ages — from Zen master Shunryu Suzuki to Henry David Thoreau — have suggested that we cultivate 'not-knowing' along with learning."

Big Think:
Do you crave deeper knowledge? Go Zen and learn to forget

"For the clarity of a 'beginner’s mind' and a path to true and lasting wisdom, one must fully embrace 'not-knowing.'"

getting a "merit" raise that's less than the cost of living increase for social security. #gratitude #capitalismRules #beginnersMind

"A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." ~ William Shakespeare

call IT what you will, all names fall short.
instead, show me how you choose to live, tell me how you love!
