More Than We Realize

Thich Nhat Hanh had once said, "We have more possibilities available in each moment than we realize." Despite knowing this, I am well aware that I can become so accustomed to my habits that I can develop or hold a lopsided way of seeing or experiencing things. We get in such a rut that we limit our view and our options, for any number of reasons.

To practice with a sense of openness, spaciousness. To be intellectually and emotionally flexible can be invaluable. Zen practice, is constant re-freshening. In that place, we can perhaps notice more than we have realized before and make ourselves available to opportunities that we had previously shut ourselves off from. With Zen practice, we can and do move outside our limited tunnel vision.

Namaste'
