One moment at a time...

Trying to live life with loving kindness as a guide.




I am as I will always be.

I am as I will always be.


“Although I too am within Amida’s grasp, Passions obstruct my eyes and I cannot see him; Nevertheless, great compassion is untiring and illumines me always.”-Shinran Shonin

Happy Bodhi Day!

I hope you use this day to get one step closer to enlightenment.

Out of the mud comes the lotus flower. The lotus flower is rooted in that mud, but it does not affect it’s beauty.  Life is full of mud, but we can still create something beautiful.

Zen Proverb

Live everyday like your hair is on fire.



“ By eating meat we share the responsibility of climate change, the destruction of our forests, and the poisoning of our air and water. The simple act of becoming a vegetarian will make a difference in the health of our planet. ― Thich Nhat Hanh, The World We Have: A Buddhist Approach to Peace and Ecology
