Overcast again this morning, the mist is stirring around as if it doesn't know where to go but mostly lifted by now. Thank God for the rain we got yesterday! We really needed it - and more. The buttercups are in full bloom now and two daisy blossoms are smiling at me by the doorsteps. I'm out of birdseed - so back to the Ag co-op today. Can't let my "livestock" go hungry! Yesterday was packed full of study - getting a brainfull of good stuff - I think I gain more from the Art of Doing Nothing retreats than the attendees will! I have been devouring a book that is a super combining of yoga and christianity - Jesus, Yoga, and The Way of Happiness - It has led me to reading the suggested Bible verses AND Patanjali's Yoga Sutras daily. What a powerful experience it is. The author presents a daily question that stirs up all kinds of insights. For example, today's question is: What is one change you need to make today? I have asked myself that question many times over the past ten years (since I retired) and always find it provocative - usually I get the same answer - which is revealing in itself! I'll confess - the answer always has to do with what I'm stuffing into my mouth.
