A big title for this little post.
Always dashing between two antipodes - that's me.
I admire Martha Stewart, and at the same time she unnerves me, as perfection often does.
The Zen-Priest Shunmyo Masuno spreads calm and serenity - though when I imagine how the Zen-monks really live, I shudder.
(I cannot find the English version of his book: I translate the German subtitle to: "How to tidy up and gain a pure heart through/by it" Tasker: Please help me: through or by?).
So: I'm muddling through, not by, and pick those pearls of wisdom that appeal to me. Sometimes I will quote a few.
I have a new plan:
As an eager diary-writer (hand-written diaries) I will try here to write a different version online. Daily finger exercises.
If my name were Martha, I would promise: Every day.
If I were Shunmyo, I would say: Wu Wei.
Being Britta, I say: I try to give my best.
