Interlude at the Lake


I think I need some quiet time. I always start to feel this way when I come back to Florida. It's important to visit everyone, but it also leads to an inevitable whirlwind of social interaction and even family mediation. Holy cow.

Back when I was sitting regularly, meditation gave me that outlet -- a dedicated period to simply watch my mind, watch the thoughts flow, be silent and without purpose or goal. Maybe I'll sit some today.

  3. Ms Moon: Thanks. Coming from a Florida expert, that means a lot. :)

    Ellen: You can sit by this lake but you have to come to Florida first! I'm actually still in Florida -- I go home to London on Tuesday.
