“Within their life-writings, black Buddhists weave together narratives of race and religion to situate themselves as racialized subjects within an imagined inter-national community situated in a Buddhist worldview.” -Adeana McNicholl (Journal of the American Academy of Religion)

love:
surprise kisses, french kisses, open mouth kisses, neck kisses, hand kisses, cheek kisses, small kisses, butterfly kisses, long kisses, first kisses, noisy kisses, eskimo kisses, shy kisses, spiderman kisses, slow kisses, forehead kisses, chin kisses, shoulder kisses, stomach kisses, your kisses
getting up at 6 am by choice: wow what a beautiful sunrise! the house is so peaceful and quiet. i feel really tired but i don’t have to do anything but just sit here and enjoy the morning. what a pleasant feeling
getting up at 6 am because you have to: these covers draped upon my mortal coil have become the dirt above my casket. my corpse refuses to unsettle the earth to rise from its grave. i have been dead for centuries and have no intentions to assimilate once more into the tragic world of the living
