Things I can still get wrong:
not finding an important document where
it should be filed;
not finding a book where it should be shelved;
misplacing wallet, diary or mobile phone
etc.

Such mistakes sometimes cause
problems
and friction. Maybe we learn to cope better with the problems and
friction. I do
not learn to prevent or avoid the mistakes. Acceptance of fallibility is
necessary but is awareness sufficient to prevent errors and
forgetfulness
possible? Not robotic precision or mental/psychological memory tricks
but perpetual awareness?
I think some people have it.
Meanwhile, we can at
least practise awareness in zazen.
