Conundrum
It's strange to think of Buddhists, Daoists, or any people ascribing to Eastern religions as living in America. How do you do it? How do you find harmony, balance, simplicity, self-denial, etc. in America? Yoga class? Tai chi? It just seems like it would be very difficult to have to go so against the natural American (Western) grain of me-me-me and more-more-more and now-now-now.

Easy: you try moving to Japan. Or some other Asian country where they actually practice these religions. Then you try to take it home with you.
Otherwise, in America you're just a frustrated weirdo.
