Gosh I haven't updated this in a while. I have not been as disciplined with the practice, and hope to get into it more.
Tonights cool breeze was the perfect ambience. I really felt in synch with all the noises happening around me. The gentle wind. The cars bustling in the background. The neighbor coming out to move his garbage can. The leaves falling off my tree. The other neighbor listening to a loud rock song. The drone above my head, and the airplane off in the distance.
And then it all went back to quiet... I was left with two loving dalmatians who were engaged in their own meditative practice- and we were all sitting in the grass, in the dark, feeling the wind once more.
I have more to add but would like to provide the additional detail in the thread, identity- what is it?
