Dear Merle,

Doc wants to practice medicine on me.  Hey, I dunno know! now, Doc.

Dentist wants to practice dentistry... on me!  Hey, Doc, dunno.

Ah, but when I practice t'ai chi, all is well.

And practice zazen; swell.

I practice gardening, yes.  It's part of my practice.  I garden.

I practice woodworking.  Now if I "would" only get better at it!

I practice guitar; painting; cello.

I don't say I practice bicycling.  Old 2-wheeler practically rides by itself.

I practice my walk in life, but there I'd say:

"The old horse knows the way".

--Joe
