Wise Counsel
Reading in Phil Cousineau's The Art of Pilgrimage the counsel he offers out of Confucius and Zhang is wise--for pilgrimage and for life:
Practice the arts of attention and listening.
Practice renewing yourself everyday.
Practice meandering toward the center of every place.
Practice the ritual of reading sacred texts.
Practice gratitude and praise-singing.
Not a bad list for living!
