Introduction

Today is day two of this May, 2023, two-day sashine. And we'll start with a story from the book Fables by Arnold Lobel. A crocodile became increasingly fond of the wallpaper in his bedroom. He lay there smiling at the walls until he turned a very pale and sickly shade of green. Next we're going to turn to Awakening to Zen by Roshi Kappalow. We'll be reading from a chapter, and I won't be reading the entire chapters too long for our purposes.
