Yikes! I'm going to quit the passes right away ... because mostly I am a complete jerk.
...
well, anyway, lately I have noticed how very, very much of my time I spend angry (mostly at students for not studying -- i'm a teacher).
[To be angry with people means that one considers their acts to be important. It is imperative to cease to feel that way. -- don Juan]
(I don't think my efforts at ~stopping anger have been frenetic and fruitless, however)
Anyway, though, I do recapitulate the day every day. As far as the 'big' recapitulation ... well, I'm working on my list. It's slow going.
Am I doing 'okay'? -- fear of syntactic commands aside. Am I allowed to still 'pretend' to be working on being a warrior and eliminating self-importance even though it will take me a very long time to recapitulate?
