Confucius was born in toughly 500 BCE and it will take over a couple of centuries before his ideas have impact.

? The Golden Girls (Need I say more? ? )

? John Cusack movies while snuggling with MisterInBlue. Some couples have "their song." We have John Cusack movies. ?

Way of Zen =: [Zendao] | Alan W Watts

I think rewatching movies from the past can be relaxing - Breakfast Club, St. Elmo‘s Fire, Good Will Hunting. Nostalgia and memory lane really soothes my soul. #serenesaturdays @TheBookHippie

TheBookHippie Ooooo St Elmo‘s Fire!!! 4mo

Talking Zen: Reflections on Mind, Myth, and the Magic of Life | Alan Watts

pick

No one talks Zen better than Alan Watts. I can‘t blame his son for cashing in on his father‘s legacy by publishing old audio lectures in book form. I kept this pocket gem in my work bag for the better part of last year. It kept me grounded and spiritually in a better place than I would have been otherwise.

JamieArc Hey Catie. Do you have the tagged book:

When No Thing Works: A Zen and Indigenous Perspective on Resilience, Shared Purpose, and Leadership in the Timeplace of Collapse

catiewithac @JamieArc I just ordered it yesterday because I‘m barely coping. Also, I should mail your birthday gift this week! 🥳 10mo

JamieArc @catiewithac I had ordered it for you to send with your birthday package but it *just*came in. That‘s okay though - it‘s one I‘m interested in as well. I‘ve been reading feminist rage books to prepare. I hope you have some good things planned tomorrow to distract you or help you cope. Hugs to you, friend 🤗💙 10mo

I can‘t seem to ‘‘like‘ or comment on anyone‘s posts, or even when I select a book add my own pic. I have logged all the way out on my iPad and back in again, but that hasn‘t helped. Hope someone can assist. #litsy

Librarybelle There are others who had the same issue. The best thing to do is email litsy@librarything.com to report the issue, and they can hopefully help get the app up and running again! It hasn‘t happened to me yet, but it seems when an iOS update runs, the app is not cooperating with it. 13mo

Missusb Thank you 13mo

The Way of Zen | Alan W. Watts

pick

The audiobook narrator tried to imitate Alan Watts‘ voice and speaking style, and just no. There‘s only one authentic Alan Watts. Still a good book with lots about Buddhist history.
