starting with what you have: Bayou Buddhists Post

Not what I typically post here so it's over here.

What Is This?

"starting with what you have" is the concept of walking your path now, not putting it off until you think you're ready. Cooking the Dharma as referenced in the address is not about trying to concoct my own Dharma as a final result, but rather use it as an ingredient in my life.

The two concepts together are a reminder to me to cook my life with just the ingredients at hand and make the best of it. Tasting each and every flavor to its fullest, no matter how bitter or sweet. Each moment will be different, but the Dharma will always be a constant ingredient, changing the recipes for the way I deal with different situations life throws my way.
