Question

An experience that taught you to appreciate life more (Narrative Paragraph)

Answer 1

$\huge\pink{Answer}$

• I was a Zen student years ago. Zen is mostly sitting -- in a very precisely formal position -- for long stretches at a time, in a room full of other people who are also sitting very precisely for long stretches at a time.
• Lets just say "in Zen, you sit."

• During long "sesshin", which is the Zen word for "a bunch of days in a row sitting like this", we had work periods. Work periods (called "samu") are when you go outside and trim the bouganvilla -- that's a very fast-growing vine with long, sharp thorns, whose main purpose in life is to scar the limbs of people who try to trim it.

• You can always tell a Zen student in that neighborhood, because their forearms look like heroin addicts -- all scratched up from the War of the Bouganvilla.
