[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]My kids and I have our birthdays within a span of 10 days in August and call ourselves the "Leo Trio." We get along well because we learned early on to give each other lots of space and to tread carefully around any ego-sensitive issues. 
Love the Zen story. I can't say that I "try hard," but I have found that following an impulse to let go of something has always been a good decision. So far, I've mainly been delighted with simplifying my life, reducing the number of "things" I rely on by replacing them with multi-purpose substitutes. Every time I can replace 2+ items with 1, it makes me happy.
My "practice" consists mainly of learning to just be in, nurture, and love the moment, whether actually sitting or engaged in mundane activities, connecting with the sacred that permeates all. The cats that have chosen to live with me are constant examples of how to just "be."
