Good morning. How are you today?
Bloom your own way, at your very best. This is Shima, of Oubaitori.com.
Morning Daimoku, ten thousand chants. Today is Wednesday, September 2. The shop is closed today.
What my wife has been telling me since April
“There is a procedure that cannot be done unless you go yourself.”
She has been saying this to me since around April.
But July was hot, and August was hot, and the work was piled high. I will do it once September comes. That is what I said, and I put it off, and today arrived.
Even when I do not feel like it, I do what I said I would do
Today I am going to go and do the thing that cannot be done unless I go.
The truth is, there are many other things I would rather be doing. But I made a promise, so I have to carry it out properly.
Even when my own feelings say no, the things that must be done get done.
Building harmony in the family, properly
So today, inside I am thinking “hmm,” but I will say “I understand, yes, yes,” and off I will go. That is how I want to build harmony in our family, properly.
Today I will make it a day for doing the practical work that I myself have to go and do.
Let’s Daimoku.
Life brings all sorts of things. Swallowing them and carrying on matters too, I believe. I ask for your kindness again today.
