Quiet morning

As I awoke naturally, I got to enjoy the non-busyness of the day beginning.

Interesting way to begin my day.

Immediately I wonder how I can recreate this at my home. I cannot.

All I can do is remember this poignant moment of peace and calm to draw upon from time to time.

As I enjoy the beauty and charm of my antique room I find myself thinking old thoughts of centuries ago.

How far back can I remember? My meditation begins.

What, you think you have to closing your eyes and sitting still to meditate?

Meditation is a state of mind where the stillness is there. Emptying you mind, unattaching your conscious activity of the mind. I have found rhythmic movement assists me with this. Yes, even dancing can be used. I guess the core of meditation can be described as a rhythm without a rhythm. It is releasing judgement

And now I begin preparing my text in a physical journal with pencil in hand.

May you find Peaceful clarity today with this message from me to YOU. :-)

  1. thank you.
    very insightful.
    meditation is releasing judgement...
    that's a rare understanding.
    up and down up and down
    rhythm without rhythm.

    i was attacked today, on a forum.
    stutterers are a bolshy lot.
    they despise the fluent.
    they forget i was one of them,
    until i was not.

    i was able to exist outside of self
    and respond without defense.
    it's a new skill for me.
    a new ability.

    everything is exactly as you make it.
    it is as well to make it with care.

  2. Stuttering is common. We all have it from time to time.

    This is not one of those times. This cycle brings greater confidence and deeper understanding draws the power that already existed out. This may be misconstrued as being cocky or better than others.

    What I have discovered from others is that attacks are merely an opening that occurred faster than the judgmental mind could process. This may be a good thing. As you are to me, Friend. Your ability to reach me is a gift I accept Joyfully.
    And so it is. :-)
