Worst Buddhist Ever
I thought of this idea a while back and never really followed through. Basically, I’m a Buddhist in belief but not in practice. Four noble truths, eightfold path, all that stuff, I fully believe in it. I just can’t seem to commit to it. I seldom meditate, and when I do, I seldom meditate for more than two minutes. I don’t really think of Buddhism until it’s too late. It’s after a fight with someone that I look back and say, “Whoop, coulda been a little more mindful there.”
And so I dub myself the worst Buddhist ever. I plan on ussing this blog as a sort of notebook, a journal of my practice. I will post and explain things I find interesting and what I think of them, and hopefully it will motivate me to take my practice a little more seriously.
Stick around, I’ll be posting a lot hopefully.
What a great idea - stick with it — both the Buddhism and the writing!
