Woken by storms all through the night, soaking the parched earth. Pain throughout my legs after a day barefoot on cold tile (silly of me) that I decided to go into ... Sure enough the attention made that worse, yet this morning some relief.
I was busy working at my desk when, what I believe was a flash of sunlight caught my eye. Moving spots appeared across my eye. Not knowing exactly if it was the sun or some other malady I noted tension and worry within me. I quieted down, meditated for a bit to see if it would pass since it also appeared with my eyes closed. Slowly it did disappear and I continued meditation for about 10 minutes followed by some light chi gong and finished with my Tai Chi form. All is well, a worthwhile break in any case.
I took all my shiny stainless steel objects off the window sill since it is becoming the sunny season here.

What is it that doesn't want to meditate? There are bodily sensations, and distracting thoughts, but those are just excuses. What is going on?
