Letter to the editor: Caring monk

  • Updated

To the editor: This past weekend I was fortunate to get a tour of the Trout Lake Abbey with some friends. While I’m not a Buddhist I was looking forward to learning more about the abbey. We were welcomed by Kozen, a monk dressed in a modest brown robe who helped start the Trout Lake Abbey.

We stood side by side, chatting nervously as the judges made their decision for first place. We talked about our kids and baking. We didn’t talk about the $1,000 first prize, but I’m sure we were both already thinking about how we’d spend it.
