Recliner sit: Observing 'enoughness' in wee and simple tools -

a toothpick
a radio knob
a clothespin
the little lever that flushes the toilet
a bottle cap
a doorknob
a hinge

Appreciation of tiny tools and the taming power of the small.

Found a few minutes in the afternoon to meditate.

Quite distracted - I even forgot the closing prostrations for a moment.

Following up on Aphrodite's suggestion, yesterday, I took some time breathing in all that appeared at that moment, while breathing out the openness within which it appeared. It left me with a very light and balanced sense of the openness of reality.

Situations, Relationships
Stories, Fears, & Dreams...
Offered, Opened, Emptied

Supreme Spaciousness,

Unsure, unhinged...floating
Using memory to organize thoughts,
What was it that was said or done?
How is it that this is actually important?
Letting go....

Long day with friends, family, beautiful weather and Tai Chi

and to all a good night

day full of intensities, preparations, big birthday event, cleanup
sometimes when dropping going elsewhere you're 100% there
in the anticipatory, the eventful, the leftover equanimity
