A note about mindfulness, that happened to be about the word \u2018mindful\u2019: <\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for using publishing my review, which you found online at\u00a0http:\/\/buddhistchannel.tv\/index.php?id=12,6163,0,0,1,0<\/a> I read through it and saw an amendment.\u00a0The word \u2018mindful\u2019 in the sentence –\u00a0\u2018In their course of guerrilla filmmaking, the buddies go bumbling around with shabby makeshift props, half-witted scripts and ridiculous acting (which is of course\u00a0mindful\u00a0good acting here \u2013 if you know what I mean).\u2019 –\u00a0was changed to \u2018mindfully\u2019, which is not needed (and even wrong) –\u00a0as I was equating the paradox of \u2018ridiculous acting\u2019 as being \u2018mindful good acting\u2019.\u00a0In other words,\u00a0like the usage of \u2018ridiculous\u2019 as an adjective,\u00a0\u2018mindful\u2019 is used in a parallel way as an adjective too;\u00a0not as an adverb (e.g. \u2018ridiculously\u2019 or \u2018mindfully\u2019).<\/p>\n

Please notify me in the future,\u00a0of usage of articles by me and of any suggested changes,\u00a0as I might have improved versions elsewhere,\u00a0and that the changes might not be needed.\u00a0Telling me what changes are needed helps to mindfully improve my English too.<\/span> (Luckily, the above error is small, or an erratum would be needed.)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Writers should be informed when their writings are edited \u2013 out of respect for their works, and lest their intended meanings are unmindfully changed.\u00a0Writers are not always right. But editors are not always right either. Communication and discussion is crucial for the best of collaborated results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
