Who Am I?

I dunno, that's a good question, and that's what I'm here to find out. What I do know is I'm not the collection of titles by which you can identify me. But, if you did want to know what those were, here's a little about that:

I'm a student of Buddha-Dhamma, or what the Buddha taught. I consider myself a Buddhist in as much as I consider Buddhism a religion. More than anything, it is a practice, a way of life, and I intend to walk that path to the best of my ability.

So far, I've hit many speed bumps along the way, and taken many detours, but as for now, I am back on track and have found a nice cruising speed.

This practice isn't necessarily easy, and there are many things I'd rather be doing, but on the flip side, it's allowing me to take a deeper look at myself and my experience of being here on earth, and I doubt that is something I will live to regret.

I like writing but I don't want to be a writer, always thinking about what I will write next. What madness this can be! If anything, I am trying to think less, not more. But then again, I shouldn't really be trying to do anything, or should I?

Oh well, nothing is outside the Dhamma, and for now, I'm just along for the ride...
