Meditated in the afternoon for 10 minutes. Thought this was a bit short and did another 10 minutes in the evening.

My body still feels very heavy. Trying to let it be, and not interpret too much.

A sleepy day... cloud cover, little stumbles, dropping things... feeling a little off, but also curious about how entangled I feel with environment. It was windy today; I stood in the driveway as it was gusting. It was all inside as much as outside and I smiled because there are some things in life, maybe billions, maybe incalculable things... that never stop being child-like amazing. The heaviness and clumsiness sort of lifted after that.

Listening to the interchange between the boys, so very happy how well they get along with each other,
Grateful for three awesome amazing kids

::: Rain and rain and rain
::: Ringlets of melodious rain
::: Lulling back to tears
 

Back into the rhythm of the day, with lacings of fatigue along the edges
Smiling about the purpose of dream-catchers today from Dream Workshop:
To ward off the bad dreams, but usher the good ones down the feather to the dreamer;
So different from 'catching the dream before it drifts away from remembrance' , my previous thought.
Smiling about assumptions can occlude gentle, charming 'truths' from awareness.

Tai Chi Class this evening... always a wonderful time, a number of us practiced together ... always a learning experience for all of us, this could be a lifelong exercise in learning, as I would have hoped it would be. However, there are other "FORMS" to learn and my teacher will not let us get by with just tuning up what we know. Fan form, sword form, cane form. Much more to come to keep the mind plastic. SL stevenaia would look great doing the fan form, RL stevie may need the cane form just to keep upright.
