Our speaker Sunday morning was Maridee Edwards, who is a friend of our Fellowship and also a leader at Vipassana Buddhist Church. As Maridee reminded us, too often we're not "awake" to our lives; we do things in a haze of routine and distraction without even registering what we're doing. In Buddhism, Maridee finds guidance and practices for staying awake more often and living life as it is rather than suffering over how we want it to be.
