meditations

I found myself seeking peace last night, I have found myself aware and more aware

of the nature of who I am and how I seek peace though I also seek the robustness of life...

I found myself looking at Blue (my cat) and noticed how he too was kind of meditating

while he lay there on my bed. I mean it to be a kind of interpretation of his facial expression..

he is very high strung and quick to scatter if anything in the environment changes...

I have inferred that even when he is still, like he was last night, his face also reflected his

own kind of natural meditation for those moments of being still. Being high strung can also

mean high anxiety....and he makes his remedy..

I once heard Eckhart Tolle mention that he saw the cats in his life as zenmasters. I hadn't thought

about it - but as I continue on my path - this observation also came to me...and it came to me

as I noticed my own need to keep a focus - and then as I more purposefully focused I saw my own need in a way 

for meditation to carry me through my day's activities - my daily goals ...and I came to my parents'

house after doing a delivery for them...and there was my father reading the bible alone in his office..

I sensed his own resolution and solution to his worries...it just calmed me seeing him like that...

It's keeps me going.

So I am here now, back at home... I have found myself happy and peaceful..

sending peace to you guys and have a good Saturday!
