Keiji Kukino gave today's Dharma Talk, focusing in on two Japanese words that Rev. Umitani shared in a previous Dharma message: mottainai (もったいない) and okagesama (おかげさま). Kuki asked us to consider incorporating these words into our daily vocabulary, much in the way that other Japanese words have become part of our everyday language.
The amaryllis bulbs that we planted last week have started to grow.
