I have been meditating for more than 30 years, and subscribe to several meditation newsletters — The Daily Guru, and The Universe ). Great thoughts, but no opportunity for interaction. I plan to post at least 5 days per week with thoughts about what is happening in my world and open the opportunity for comment from my fellow travelers through the experience called life.
There is a wonderful posting that someone sent me yesterday that puts the things that clamor for our attention in perspective called ShiftHappens. There is so much going on and so many things to learn, see, and do, that it takes more and more effort on my part to just sit with myself and get back to what is really important.
Perhaps you feel the same. I left California a number of years ago for the enchantment of the Southwestern desert. Instead of cars and houses, I see the greenbelt of a river, a glorious mountain range, and a huge, huge sky that is always dynamic. It gives me perspective in which to explore my passions and my patience.
I invite you to sit back with me for awhile and think about the spark that makes us human, the spark that gives us life, the great spiritual undercurrent to life that unites us all when we let it.
Patience.
