Great insights, John - I'm happy to jog brain cells!

Love the "doing" versus "being" clarity you bring. Us Westerners are much more likely to invest in doing without understanding who we are - how we're treating others - while we're doing things, and why - to what end - we're "doing."

I'm reminded of Stephen Covey's lumberjack metaphor from 7 Habits - gotta periodically climb a tree to ensure we're logging right forest!

Cheers!
