lost in thought.
unedited…the view from where i sat in meditation today.
I've been unsettled this weekend – lost in a jumble of thoughts about hopes, dreams, failures, and regrets. Bryan and Colleen have both reminded me recently to be gentle with myself, and I really did try to heed those words. I'm going to excuse myself from the weekend race – the one with the monday finish line where everyone asks "how was your weekend?" while tallying up the score of who did the most/best/biggest with their days. My weekend was quiet & small. The highlight? A long bike ride on the causeway. I stopped 1/2 way back and sat in meditation for a bit. There are tons of flat rocks, perfect for sitting. The sound of the water is soothing. I need to find my way to those rocks more often….

I liked your comment about tallying up the weekend for points – I too have noticed that it seems to have become a contest of who is busiest, if you are busiest then you must be worth more. I, like you, am trying to slow down, be more present in my moments. I do not want to be part of the contest.
