holy shit dude, it's been a long time since i've posted anything. let's see.... the two months at the buddhist monastary was nothing short of amazing and completely necessary. life there is completely on a schedule and everything there supports one's practice. i was very sad to leave. but now i'm back in the real real big world and i'm still on the monk schedule (that means getting up at 4:30am). i still don't have a full time j.o.b. but i'm making a little $$$ on the side fixing a '65 chevy truck. i MUST clean my room today. i have to wade in a sea of possessions about a foot thick. all this shit has to go. (actually it is already gone in my mind, all i have to do is have a bit of follow through.) i lead a pretty easy life these days, i'm getting better at seeing all the trappings this modern world has to offer, and not getting caught up in them.

funerals, births, and birthdays i have witnessed since the last time i've talked will y'all. there have been alot of intence moments where my life could have turned on a dime, and i have a deep sense of "who knows". i think i have a better sense of how rare and precious this life is wiith all these gifts i've been given, and all the important friends i've made. i think i have a deeper sense of living not just for myself but for the sake of all beings.

anyway, yea, i've really got to clean this fucking pigpen up, so i gotta go. please take good care everyone.
