I am still in "The Five Invitations." The second invitation is "Welcome Everything, Push Away Nothing." The section begins with a quote from Mizuta Masahide (never heard of him or her before) -
"Barn's burnt down -
Now
I can see the moon."
This is about the ninth time I have read these wise words.
But, this morning, I have been most struck by my post title "Am I loved? Did I love well?" Or more relevant today - Do I love well?" The author, Frank Ostaseski, is writing that these two questions are what those who are near death ask. Perhaps I am near death now? Certainly nearer than yesterday. Whatever.
