I am happy to be home after magically exploring Lake Superior shoreline and hanging out with friends in Marathon.
Summer vacation is over now. Vacation of the kind where there is no routine. Routine helps to ground me, to keep me earth bound, eating well, sleeping well, moving well and allowing spaciousness to unfold naturally.
I feel that September is the true new year. I always reflect at this time of year. What do I want to do this fall? What do I want to clean up? What do I want to get rid of? What do I want to do with this one precious life? Tonight , my question is - what is the truth of me?
What is the truth of me? This seems to me a wonderful question. Maybe answering it will illuminate why I am so frequently disappointed with how I am. How I fail at what I want to do. How I don't know what to do. There seems to be a gap between how I want to live and how I actually live. Why can't I do what I intend? What is the truth of me? And I think that I should know this by now.
There seems to be no answer - but an abiding silence.......as if I know the truth of me but can't voice it. The withdrawal inward is so still and peaceful that all voices subside.
