Then and Now

On the way back from tea break today, two nuns stopped me on the stairway and pointed to a photograph on the wall.  The Sager Science Center, where the current workshop is being held, has photographs of monks, nuns and instructors from past workshops.  The nuns noticed that I was in one of the photos.  One of the nuns who spoke some English, pointed out that I was now wearing the same clothing as I was wearing when the photo on the wall was taken.   And sure enough:  today I was wearing the same shirt and pants as I had on during the last workshop I taught in 2018 in Gangtok (Sikkim).

I guess as much as things change over time, the more they stay the same (at least for my clothing).
