“Yesterday morning I was not happy because I was extremely bothered with my new supervisor the previous day.  I read your instructions and then decided to just start with the first puzzle, “A Border Town”.  After I viewed the word list, "reap liberating fruits" jumped out at me as a string of words that I really liked.  I glanced at the puzzle a bit and then read the word list again.  I decided to located "reap liberating fruits" but instead "free mind of distractions" jumped out at me.  Now isn't that odd, because that of course is exactly what I needed to do!  Then next came reap liberating fruits!  Those two word strings prove the sequence of things and how they are often meant to unfold.  The next string that came was “commit to the middle way”, and then “diligent teacher and receptive mind”. So I thought, what a great start to these puzzles.  So many of the word strings are something that you want to repeat over and over to yourself because they are so positive and they lead you somewhere where we all want to go whether it is learning or just experiencing.  Does that make sense?”
