It's MAYbe. May🐝 join me tomorrow from 5-7MT on @great_circles_grcr . Playing a few long pieces I've enjoyed recently and playing back a reading I gave here in Denver last month.

Anniversary day! 🎉 Three years ago today (3/5/23) I took my refuge vows with Professor Judith Simmer-Brown. It was one of the most meaningful events of my life, which I likened at the time to "getting married to your own mind". Like many partnerships, the past 3 years have involved a lot of listening, growth, understanding, compromise, commitment, discomfort, etc. etc. etc. Now I'm 3. Thanks for the encouragement, grace, patience, and generosity.
In the words of Van Gogh, "I have a third portrait of myself… for which I have conceived the idea of making a bonze, a simple worshipper of the eternal Buddha."
