Where do we Find Ourselves?

(“We’re not in Kansas anymore,” said a girl to her dog. Or was that “down the rabbit hole, we go”? Through the looking glass? Or out of the fat (vegetable oil, for the vegetarians among us) and into the

Shunryu Suzuki

“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.“

Albert Einstein
