I agree w you above but would add that the Buddhism the Dalai Lama practices, Tibetan Buddhism, really is a religion in a formal sense whereas Zen can be commingled w anything.

For me meditation can be ok if I combine it w positive affirmations. If I set adrift directionless on a sea of consciousness I end up up crashing on a rocky shoreline.

i end up crashing on a rocky shoreline no matter what i do, or don't do. it's ridiculous. same outcome regardless of what i do.

If someone didn't learn something at a young age, then they must learn it at an older age. The task may be laboriously slow.

For example, I never learned certain foundational aspects of english which affects (damnit, you again) my speech and writing, or important historic events, or how to motivate myself to learn, or certain aspects of socializing.

your writing seems fine to me. and you spelled "affects" correctly. :)

My grammar isn't perfect either, mts. I never learned the specific rules and write by instinct. I still have some trouble with affect/effect, but I think I'm beginning to understand better now. "Affect" is used as a verb. "Effect" is generally used as a noun.

Pancakes and ice cream? Sounds like a plan.
