One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
tai chi in the wudang mountains
taking care of a 95 year old lady, making friends even though there was such an age difference.
living as a nun in an amazing Buddhist community that feeds, houses and gives medical care to anyone who comes, for free.. all through donations and volunteers, showing me that the impossible is possible. The rules are different than what we think. I learned there that Doing good deeds, serving, being fearlessly generous is the safest thing to do for oneself and others, and the world
Teach, Learn, Share
How to make falafel, gluten free pancakes, rope out of plants, sandals..
Perhaps some meditation.
Lots of creative ideas
