Ingagement

“I would like to introduce a new verb for engagement. Instead of the ‘e’ you put the ‘i’, so ingagement. As a global Sangha, we definitely need to be involved and informed, and we need to engage for social and political change. But we must never forget to ingage and to come back to ourselves. When we want to have social change, we must remember to return and to ask ourselves, what do we have to offer when it changes?”

Watched The Prom on Netflix this afternoon. My face ached from smiling through the first half and my heart hurt from crying through the second. Fun, solid performances one would expect from such a cast. A perfect modern musical.
