2.23.18 Settling On Down

It’s nice. Things are getting a little easier. Settling down.
Sometimes we have to break away from those closest to us,

 and honor what we know we must do, to get through. 

Even if it upsets others.
So I have, and another new day is coming, as much settles and calms. 

As much resolution and peace returns.
Whenever it’s time to get up , I go to the frig 

and take out the castor oil soaked pads, 

put the oven on low, and pop them in.
Mix some heated water with the cold water and miso in the mug.
Prepare to lie down with hot water bottles and castor oil compresses. 

On the still-not-all-better-but-functional-knee. 

On the dropped meta tarsal. On lungs.
Then I put on a Tara Brach guided meditation, lie back, 

and watch the day turn from night.
