While I spent some time in a tranquil space dedicated to Tibetan art, a very dear and important member of our family passed away. I am sad, but also trying to be reflectful, and recognize that he would not have wanted us to grieve for him, but rather to commit our time and energy to making this world slightly better for those that we care about, and conquering our own selfishness, anger, and egos on our paths to enlightenment. I have so far yet to go, but his example must remind me.

Peace to y'all for a while.
