Grey is the Color of the World Today

I feel closer to the beginning of my learning now than ever. Clearly I am closer to the end than the beginning, so funny how life works that way. Each time I wash a dish or cook a meal my mind wanders to thoughts of how fragile all of these moments are. While I wish I was somehow savoring these actions, in some way making them grand learning experiences, touchstones on the road to in enlightenment, I am merely setting the table or cooking an omelet. However the fact that I am aware of the short time I will spend doing this seems important.
