day 87, heaven, of a bit of a "hard" sort, but WORTH IT

the body thing, why not sense ourselves?

The heaven of attention

Try this game today, and it “ain’t” so easy.

One time as you breathe in, sense your left foot and as your breathe out, sense your right hand.

The next time you breathe in, sense your right foot and as you breathe out, sense your left hand.

Keep doing this, all the time, if you can.

Like now, reading this book, or hearing it.

Like when you put the book down.

And so on.

“Thoughts” will come in and take over our attention. Are they really so important? Can we sense the foot and hand and follow our breathing underneath our thoughts if they are important?

Can we let them go if they aren’t.

Don’t try too hard, and keep your effort smiling and see what happens.

It’s just life.

It’s just a day.

It’s just getting our attention back for ourselves.

Hello Sonoma, hilarious findings

the sweet Sonoma
spring

the whine weedwhackers

the rush of cars

and our life
our life
now

it is always with
us

when can
we find time
to be out of time:
and into

I AM ALIVE?




;;;;

Hilarious findings:


this pal of mine
I called in Hawaii
to see if he could help
me set up a month travel
there
took the information
of Marlie and I
parting
and found
a way
to a love
that maybe
had been smoldering in the background

so now Marlie
and Ramaia
have a nice thing going

good

love is good

when you love someone(s)
you want them to be
happy

good


sweet,
eh?

Big 3, Law of 7

there is actually a law of
3
also,

sort of like Hegel's
thesis, antithesis, synthesis

for anything that needs change:
you have a force going for change
a force opposing,
and then you need something out of the
system
(like a brain, a heart, another person,
an idea)
to create a way out of the loglamb

that's all aside
sort of

big 3:
in the old days
might have been Father, Son and Holy Trinity

today the
gods
might be
Money, Power, Status

I propose these three
as mine:

Now,
Nature (big Nature: the Earth, little nature: our body/mind selves)
Love


and thinking about my
Life
and what what is important

I arrive with seven:

Wake Up
Love Life
Love Self
Love Others
Be of Use
Heal the Earth
Be Happy

ciao for Thursday,
Chris
