You've been reading my mind, Peter. I see the piss-poor number of likes on my Substack and I realize I am boring people to death saying things that they already know or have read elsewhere. Yes, I do very often wonder if I've any right to publish another book -- this time not a silly little fun booklet. And then you say: "I’ve begun to sense that creativity is synonymous with spirituality." BAM--thank you for this key to unlock my fears. Maybe I WILL fail again, but at least my spirituality will be expressed.
One of my favorite sayings is "start right now, where you are, with what you have."
Moving forward in practice generates the path itself, summarized by the Zen teacher Dogen as "the path arises with each step."
Hey, what happened to the guy of the roof with the pizza??!!
Well, I’m not sure. I assume he climbed down, finished his pizza, and went home! Thanks for your response Chuck!
I enjoy your articles, thank you for writing them Peter!
