    Thank you everyone involved in organizing and doing the retreat parts.
    I am looking very much forward to it and will participate as best I can then.
    As the other thread is closed, thank you Shoka for the spreadsheet, it is very helpful to me because my scatterbrains would have messed all thingds up otherwise .

    Gassho,
    Danny

        I would very much like to participate, especially as I'm taking part in Jukai this year. But circumstances at home, namely a 4month old, a 2yr old and a frazzled Mum demand my full attention day and night. That said, I will try to engage as best I can.

            Yes, your Jukai and Retreat is all of that flowing effortlessly into each other. So long as you try with sincere intentions, and just do what you can, it is all good.

                    I think I will need to space it out a bit or choose a different weekend. My job is currently hectic and sporadic. Two of the people i help take care of are having medical issues. I will still be sitting with you all... Just in different times.

                      Hi Entai,

                      It is fine to do what needs to be done because life requires. Also, taking care of people with medical issues, plus you hectic job ... all part of the Retreat Unbroken.

                        Thank you very much for all your hard work and dedication to this retreat, Jundo, and to all the priests that will be helping out as well.

                        Sam, I was the frazzled mom once upon a time also with a baby and a toddler. Sounds like you are a big support to your family. =)

                        Gassho,

                          Thank you Joyo.
                          I feel very privileged. Parenthood has also been the final spur I needed to actively try to walk this path. What a fantastic resource Treeleaf is proving to be. I cannot thank Jundo and the sangha enough.
                          I must confess, the regular sleepless nights do however frequently cause sleepy zazen. But, as with all, I try my best....

                            Dear Jundo,

                            I will be traveling from this Friday until Dec 13, so will be unable to sit face-to-face for a couple of weeks, including the Rohatsu retreat; I will 'catch up' on my return...
