    "Simple Living" - Chapters 19 and 20

    Just jump in if joining, no "catch up" ... just today is today ...

    I will include chapter headings, as we discovered some differences between the US and UK editions regarding chapter order.

    Chapter 19 - Try A Standing Practice - While holding the strap on the bus or train (please NOT while driving!), in a long line for the grocery check-out, in an elevator rushing not to be late, or in the middle of a sidewalk, store or your own kitchen, suddenly, on the spur of the moment and for no reason, just stop ... breathe ... for a few minutes (or even just a few moments) of "standing" Zazen. Then, proceed on ...

    Chapter 20 - Don't Waste Time Worrying About Things You Cannot Control - When something happens this week or comes to mind that you really cannot control, drop from mind all worry and thoughts of control.
