(Jorio/ Joria haibun)
win-win
step out of kitchens
where there are too
many cooks, pots or
opinions that are different
take a walk and build
your appetite so you can
enjoy the good food
let the steam dissipate;
if the choices are
not yours; walk away
until it’s chow time
be gracious when
the meal is over, and thank
your host or hostess
offer to help clean -
if they tell you
to go sit down
then just do that

Karma is cause and effect. Dharma means cosmic law.
Yoga is enlightenment through movement and Tao is the
practice of acting in harmony with the fundamental essence
of everything you encounter.
Note: my haiku (or other forms) are my interpretations
or of how I might put the inspirational sentence
into practice, for me. Also, I am going in my own order.

Thanks for your kind words. I do review all comments before posting - so if your comment disappears on you, don't fret. I will post honorable comments as soon as I am able.
I do not post or return visits to "Anonymous Comments." Adding your link to an unrelated site will not help. Most everything that ends up in spam will not be posted, especially that which makes no sense to the post.
Any 'opinions' that are not introduced, explained and are unrelated to my post will not be honored. Having a 'legitimate' blog will not help - you will be marked as spam. You will have no voice here. Thank you.
