grasshopper-
he said so much in that commencement speech.
i like this:
"...if you really learn how to pay attention, then you will know there are other options. it will actually be within your power to experience a crowded, hot, slow, consumer-hell type situation as not only meaningful, but sacred, on fire with the same force that made the stars: love, fellowship, the mystical oneness of all things deep down."
and this:
"...everything to do with simple awareness; awareness of what is so real and essential, so hidden in plain sight all around us, all the time, that we have to keep reminding ourselves over and over:
"this is water." "this is water."
i knew you'd appreciate it.
