A zen mail

I mentioned I'd read a Zen book a few posts ago and that I read the authors' site quite regularly. He gets loads of mails but I thought I'd mail him with a question. I wasn't trying to trick him or anything. I just had a sincere question with regards to something he talks about in his book. So I mailed him a few weeks ago and he finally replied today. I read it at work. It was a nice mail. Very friendly, simple and to the point. I liked it. For a second I felt a weight lifted from my shoulders, and then I looked at the mound of work I had to do and I put the weight back on. It was kinda cool to get a mail from a Zen master, though. Yeah, I know Zen masters are just like you and me, but it gave me a bit of strength - It's not everyday a Zen master takes the time to write you a mail. It's kinda like getting a mail from a rock star or something...
He he, anyway...
Let the waves crash on!
