the opposite of la-la-land
Bronze Buddha, Crafts of India
When the subject of meditation comes up in conversation, the person I’m talking to will often assume the posture of faux-meditation – fingers pressed together into a point, hands upturned, eyes closed in a semblance of bliss – and will hum ominously, giggling, as he half-imagines entering into some far-out realm. The irony is, meditation is exactly the opposite of all that.

first grade
Catahoula Elementary, 1977
In second grade I wanted to be an officer when I grew up. That's what the memorabilia book says. What I meant was that I wanted to work in an office, to be an office worker, to have a desk and a nameplate and a title. How wrong I was.
