Today I read this hilarious quote from an inteview with Dagoberto Gilb:

"DG: We were talking about mentoring. I am like the Zen master who is living in a cave, on a very steep sharp cliff and the students crawl up—rock climbing skill was necessary—from crevice to crevice, and then get there: 'Ah master.' They have come for satori. And I am like 'Get the fuck out of here.'"

The rest is here.

We got back from Dallas yesterday. I don't want to torture you too much with my navel gazing. I have a terminal case of it at the moment. I'm in a what-am-I-doing-with-my-life-ing kind of place, which is just too boring to write about.
