My mind is full and relentless at the moment. In my focus on deadlines, task completion, commitments, organising and fun, I feel unsettled and constantly rushed. This is when pressure consumes me of my own volition and I lose grounding.
I forget to stop.
I forget to wait, appreciate and refocus my attention to sitting in solitude.
Contented peace and silence seem distant.
Frenzy taken hold, I fear the dissipation of ecstacy. Selfishly, I cling to the sky, fearing the fall to earth.
But rationally I understand states are temporal and I am expecting too much, being greedy with those feel-good feels
It is time then, to return to a place of peaceful waiting, where I rest and reset my mind
Waiting with my whole attention
Patiently
Sitting and waiting in peace
With need for sensations, my skin meets the world, and I take great pleasure waiting in stillness
Enjoying the silence with my attention put to my body.
The focus on detail and stamina takes me away and rests my mind.
Remember to stop and feel - hear those weary cries.
Sit
Wait
Be
In Peace
So serene ??
To simply sit ?
