【No. 0055】Kneel on a Cushion
Feb 11, 2015 23:11
Today, we held the sixth anniversary of my grandfather's death (and sixteenth anniversary of my grandmother's death).
Many relatives came to my home, and we chanted a Buddhist sutra.
While we are chanting a Buddhist chant, we usually kneel on our knees on a cushion.
However, I have a little bit of trouble with this posture, and as expected, my legs go to sleep.
I couldn't stand up for a while, but anyway, this event passed in peace.
Meanwhile, actually my mother is a Christian while my father is a Buddhist.
So sometimes I have no idea who I am.

It is redundant to say that you kneel on your knees, considering the definition of "kneel".

Family always has influence, but ultimately we are what we choose to be. That's what I think, anyway.

Thank you so much for correcting me!
Yes, I think you're right. Someday I should reach a decision.
