Well this past week has been on heck of a week! My inbox at work is almost cleared out and to think I wanted to just clear it out by doing the unethical way and tossing it in the waste bin! Wishful thinking! :-) Just keep telling myself that Rome wasn’t built in a day.
I live in a very … um.. busy home. J You would find a needle the haystack before finding a quiet place to meditate; so I tried a different method this time around.
I attempted to practice the Loving Kindness method and the Subtle Mind by going for a run in a quiet park… the park was active with other people.. But it was quiet, I was able to find some peace with everything that has been going on in my life and see some good in it and I was able to let some of the trivial things go.
When we where tasked last week with the Loving Kindness meditation I was not emotionally and mentally ready to let go of the stress that I had in my life, I had entirely too much going on in my life, I needed that stress to keep going and get things complete. This past week I was playing catch up on everything that I had ignored while I was home dealing with family issues; but this weekend I was able to let some things go while I went for a run in the park, I made peace with my Grandmother’s passing and my letting my almost perfect GPA slip (that has never sat well with me) and I know I can’t always keep a perfect grade and I’m just going to have to deal with it and keep on moving… So I can say I did a little bit better with the Subtle Mind meditation.
