A lot of it has to do with how old you are. I was at Kent State the weekend that those four were shot down in cold blood, so, you know, don't get me started. But I certainly can't do those sort of things now at my age for many reasons. I can do things that are more in line with my generation that takes a little wisdom.
Imagine navigating life's ups and downs with a sense of calm and resilience. That's exactly what Wendy Shinyo Haylett, a seasoned Buddhist teacher and host of the Everyday Buddhism podcast, brings to the table in this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment'.
