bows (~_~) humble

….I am truly honored….

wow… I am honored that so many have nominated zendictive blog for these awards. I started this blog to simply place stories of wisdom and enlightenment and to find more (my hunt for zen) and have become overwhelmed with such honors, thank you.

Now to nominate others…

1) Linda Vernon Humor

2) PocketPerspectives (Kathy)

3) A Hearts Whisper (Jackie)

4) Cat Forsely

5) Granbee

One thing I have learned from blogging is the passion of others who write, and share. Sharing is what it is all about.

note…

After Bankei had passed away, a blind man who lived near the master’s temple told a friend:

“Since I am blind, I cannot watch a person’s face, so I must judge his character by the sound of his voice. Ordinarily when I hear someone congratulate another upon his happiness or success, I also hear a secret tone of envy. When condolence is expressed for the misfortune of another, I hear pleasure and satisfaction, as if the one condoling was really glad there was something left to gain in his own world.

“In all my experience, however, Bankei’s voice was always sincere. Whenever he expressed happiness, I heard nothing but happiness, and whenever he expressed sorrow, sorrow was all I heard.”

 (the same is true with the internet, it is as tough we are blind, but we can sense the sincerity of others by the way they write. What they say and how they say it.)

have a zendictive day
