Already Broken
Saturday, July 18th, 2009
I’m pretty sure that the Heaven, if it exists, has the Internet, otherwise it won’t be heaven.
I hope my dad finally gets some time to get online and reads my blog.
“You see this goblet?” asks Achaan Chaa, the Thai meditation master. “For me this glass is already broken. I enjoy it; I drink out of it. It holds my water admirably, sometimes even reflecting the sun in beautiful patterns. If I should tap it, it has a lovely ring to it. But when I put this glass on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”

Dear Dad – Every Moment With You Was Indeed Precious, Thank You!
Hey Vijay, my sincere condolences. Wishing you strength in these hard times.
