waking up and the "holidays"

the "common belief"
mindset
way of patterning our lives

is that
the holi-daze
are

busy
they say
which means
we have to be busy

or is that
true?

can we stay
awake
when
eating

when eating
around a bunch
of people

when
eating and talking
around a
bunch
of people

this is hard

can we stay awake
when walking down
the street

a little easier

can we stay awake
"thinking"
about all we have to "do"

harder

can we stay
awake
while reading / or writing
these words
about staying a
wake,
no
that's staying
awake

yes
sometimes

and does it
feel
great
to notice
the shift
the difference???

yes.
