I like the concept of your blog: a way to make your daily life a path and a practice of realization and excellence. I think the third way is for me: A third “way” is the “way” of art or spiritual insight through beauty. This can be practiced as traditional Zen arts (tea ceremony, painting, flower arranging) or our modern forms of painting, writing, music. I love the sound and elegance of that way and it's the one I am a practiioner of... Peace Jonathan Thanks for sharing.

In this sense, I notice that our consciousness is intricately linked to our endeavors, whether or not they are performative actions (writing, starting a business, helping a friend) or part of our regular thoughts. In this sense, I am happy to know and believe that our paths are not limited to one lonely trail, but can intersect, fork, and merge with others.

I think this exploration of the interplay between realization and practice in our undertakings is a great idea.
