“When you meet a swordsman, draw your sword: Do not recite poetry to one who is not a poet.”
Robert Greene, quoting/paraphrasing Lin-Chi

More synchronicity today.
Spent the morning trimming some of the shrubs in the garden, then settled down indoors for a cuppa and catch-up on my ‘admin’, replying to emails and messages. I’d had a text from K to let me know he was starting a Tai Chi class in September, and I hadn’t yet responded because I wasn’t sure I could make it. I sent the reply off and the doorbell sounded - it was him! “I’ve just texted you” – with that there was a ping from his phone, “yes, it’s just arrived”. If he was a regular visitor perhaps I wouldn’t have been surprised, but it’s been months since I’ve seen him (and years before that). Spent a couple of hours catching up, with some philosophy and reflection on the Tao (the Way) and how it weaves a curious path we call our lives.
