After re-reading my post about Transparency, I just wanted to delete the whole thing! It just showed me how whiny I can be sometimes and then I got on a roll, didn't I? It is so easy once a negative thought enters the mind for those negative thoughts to keep multiplying.
I used to practice Meditation on a daily basis. It was so hard at first. In fact, I never thought I would be able to do it. I then met a teacher who showed me that I was making it a lot more difficult than it actually was. I eventually found that The key to meditating was not to force my mind to empty itself of all thought, but rather, to begin to observe each thought as it passes through and LETTING the thought pass through instead of becoming detached from observance.
It seems that I, like many people, can get caught up in my daily thoughts and in turn they begin to own me, when, if I were to be able to slow down, and observe those thoughts through my daily existence, perhaps I would be able to be more in tune with the Universe and with who I really Am.
I haven't practiced Meditation for a good two years. Even though it brought me such Zen, I turned away from it for awhile, as my life was taking a series of turns and twists. I'm ready to begin again.
I am ready to start fresh.
Blessings,
Leslie.
