bowing to the divine in others doesn't necessarily preclude the sarcastic....

Good point, zen. Thanks for bringing it to our attention in your inimitable way.
We're all on our own paths while at the same time sharing the universal. I find it challenging to remember that at times, particularly when my head, heart, and gut are off-balance, and I lose my sense of groundedness. A beginner in walking the path mindfully can benefit from markers or signposts along the journey. Saying namaste reminds me of the way I am seeking and the blessing of the companions I encounter.
Baby steps. A journey begins with the first step. And it continues along, at times re-discovering the beginning, at times going along blindly.
What works for and has meaning to one may not be shared by others.
And that's okay.

I've seen you make reference to that before though I don't know what it was about. It did seem pretty upsetting to you, though. With other issues you've been facing, you sure don't need anything added to it.
Some say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but I'm not sure I would agree.

Nah. I was talking about baby steps for me regarding change. If I think of self-improvement or wellness or whatever you call it, I think of a journey. I can't just start out full-tilt boogie making giant leaps at a sprint pace. I have to start small and slow. That's all I meant. :)
