This is indeed happening. Not just the writing of this first, momentous blog post, but the unending moment of all of creation continues to happen, and that is the this to which I’m cheekily alluding.

The other “this” that is happening is the development of this book, Zen and the Art of Urban Sketching. Creating and publishing this book is a life goal whose purpose is the creation of it as much as the achievement of publishing it will be someday.

“The Path is the Goal” – I read this many years ago as it was the title of a book and the focus of the message. Written by Chögyam Trungpa, it changed the way I looked at the world and led to this post and my love of urban sketching.

I hope you’ll join me on my path, as I use this blog as a place to capture my thoughts and ideas for this book, and to celebrate when it is published.

Let’s be patient, pace ourselves, and get started right away. Like, now.
