Practice

Self imposed limits...attachments to the norm...

Buddhism encourages me to let go of attachments which anchor me in anger, envy, resentments and any number of other issues. I need to remember that quality of letting go every time I run into an annoying individual, a stressful situation or a cat who just wants to climb up my leg on his way to the catnip. The Zen koan of holding with an open hand is so easy to say, so hard to do. I guess that is why meditation is called practice.

Namaste.
