"Attention. Attention. Attention."
Ikkyu, Zen Master*

How much of the time are we really awake? Most of
us are so good at dealing with our daily tasks that we
go on autopilot. We put on our clothes, eat breakfast
and drive to work without really paying attention.
We don't need to pay attention, because we know
how to do these tasks. . .

I belong to this group as well. I find it informative
and interesting. I supposedly have some native
roots in my family history, and it feels natural to
me to listen to the wisdom that I hear in this group.

I don't advocate seeking out mystics, but sometimes
I find meaningful advice from different things I
find-wisdom can come from different places.
(All perceived wisdom should be weighed out with
scripture to see if it is in fact truthful) I find this
post to be truthful, and I take note that I can benefit
from the advice. I become much too preoccupied
with stuff. I tend to worry much to much as well.
