The thread of this conversation makes me want to share the title of a book that was introduced to me this morning called "Instructions to the Cook" by Glasser and Fields. I understand it is Zen philosophy. A small book that is an easy read. It compares life to cooking a meal, where you look at the ingredients that you have present and make the best possible meal with those ingredients, both good and bad....you know how sour milk can make great bread!! It speaks of how you must first cook for yourself, and that the warmth and wonderful aromas that that emerge in preparing the meal for yourself, you draw others to the table. I think I must pick it up. It is certainly fitting for some of what has transpired for me since OsonOS. Michelle
