Zen Is Not Meditation?

...no, it's apres-ski.  Zen is moment-to-moment experience.  You are reading these words and the tight knit warmth of your ski-band hugs your head.  It's about sitting in a hot-tub being present with others.  It's knowing decision-tree-free when to pizza and when to french-fry.

Apres-ski is the feeling of accomplishing something big.  It's feeling light-headed and deliciously sore after an exhilarating day of activity.  Your possibility space is the great white-open! Cold feet snug in fur boots.  Over-sized woolen sweater draped over your body like a tea-cozy.  Ski-band over ears.  You are sitting in front of a cracking fire with hot chocolate.  There is nothing more than this.  Ah!
