I Can’t Be a Buddhist

Unless I misunderstood, I learned in a lecture today that Buddhists say animals don’t have consciousness. Oh well.  So much for that.  Unless I misunderstood, which is so entirely possible. A little bit of googling seems to indicate that I might have.  I hope a Buddhist weighs in.  

In the meantime, I give you this guy.  Please note the endearing tiny leg splayage to body ratio.

Daffodils Behind Bars

It’s the weekend!  Here’s my plan for the day, we’ll see how much I actually do:  Exercise, meditate, go to the Greenmarket, see a movie, go to a lecture at the Rubin Museum.

I Miss Forsythia

I wish it grew all over Manhattan the way it grows on Long Island.  Christ, I’m having this huge nostalgia wave for the Spring sights and smells of Long Island, where I grew up and hated at the time.  Maybe I’m just feeling nostalgia for a more lush Spring.
