Jesse, "Eternal Imprints" strikes home. The longer we live, the more we're snowed by all the impressions garnered from our senses. Some of us are wired to strongly internalize every single impression; trying to control thoughts and eradicate or placate the worst ones is my ultimate goal. As you mention, Buddhism suggests mindfulness and selflessness, which I struggle to achieve. And I think you do too.

Intention is transformative. Thanks Jesse!
