The window.

The spiritual path is like spending a lifetime scrubbing a window. Just when you think it’s finally clean, you can’t help but notice there’s still a smudge on the glass.
Year after year, you scrub the window, until you realise the smudge you’re trying to remove is the reflection of the one cleaning it.
At this point, the interest in cleaning the window comes to an end and all that remains is the willingness to look through it.”

— Matt Kahn

Olen käyttänyt @zenbrowser selainta nyt muutaman viikon ajan ja täytyy todeta, että kokemus on ollut todella positiivinen!

Mukava käyttää selainta, joka keskittyy olemaan selain

Today I finished a mala using bodhi seeds a friend gave me when he came back from China. I've had it for at least six months would do a little and then stop and today I said "I'm going to finish!" And what did I notice right as I was tying the last knot? The tassel had fallen apart! I tried to no avail to put it back together and back on. Anyway, it's finished now, tassel or not, and I'm sure there's a lesson in there somewhere

Recommend for an android web browser to replace Firefox?

I've heard of:

#vivaldi #libreWolf #waterfox #zen #opera

Not all of them have #Android clients which is a requirement for me.

What's the preferred privacy-focused non-ad #browser these days for phones?

I liked Firefox after I left chrome, and now Vivaldi seems acceptable so far.

I don't need sync, would like extensions, and I have to be able to use external password manager.

Let's the opinions fly! Thanks.

Whatever is not yours: let go of it. Your letting go of it will be for your long-term happiness & benefit

Not every battle is yours to fight.
There is strength
in walking away.
Breathe in
and let it go.
