Advice from Buson
I am reading Three Simple Lines from Natalie Goldberg and she quotes Buson to the group of travelers that are in this Japan trip together:
“What you want to acquire, you should dare to acquire by any means. What you want to see, even though it is with difficulty, you should see. You should not let it pass, thinking there will be another chance to see it or acquire it. It is quite unusual to have a second chance to materialize your desire”
This quote reminded me of my thoughts on feeling adrift and holding on, and how photography helps with noticing fleeting moments.
