Maintaining Inspiration
The key to maintaining your inspiration
In the day-to-day work of meditation practice
Is to approach it as play-- a happy opportunity
To master practical skills,
To raise questions, experiment, and explore.

Flip Flops
Living on an island
You think you would own a pair
of flip-flops for every wear.
I have seen flip flops so worn down
That toes were touching the ground.
I have seen other flip flops so torn
That you swore they were over worn.
I have tried to wear a pair of my own flip-flops
But I felt so unprepared.
My first pair made my toes so sore that I swear.
Flip-flops have made me slip and trip.
That is why I don't wear
Nor care or dare
To wear flip flops anywhere!
To wear flip flops anywhere!
