“I realize that I am becoming less conscious of the impression I have on others. I don’t care much if people recognize me or not on the streets of Seoul; I visit public baths with a light heart, and I hum and occasionally sing to myself while taking walks. I have become quite good at declining requests for lectures or papers if I have too much on my plate, and I no longer wonder what other people think of me.”
― Haemin Sunim, When Things Don't Go Your Way: Zen Wisdom for Difficult Times
