Each new day we forget and then remember to
leave off our weighty, unnoticed assertions we drone on to ourselves, about how
this is not enough and that needs to be much more and how will we ever do this
and then what will happen.
I was sitting here early this morning, not
knowing I was doing this. Forgetting the ardent meditation of not enough I was
feeding and serving.
When one of the cats came up for a rub, and
for just a moment I had this realization that I could just smile and rub. Not set off upon some internal rant of how he
needs this and I should really be doing more of that and how will I manage and
on and on. He just rubbed on my hand and I scratched his chin and just loved
him and somehow remembered.
I settled down into just rubbing scratching
beneath his chin and looking into his eyes
and listening to the earth awaken
outside the window
and being settled back down here.
