Meditation

In the process of my activities today I found myself drawn into the excitement, stress, chaos and anticipation like a moth to a flame or iron filings to a magnet. It felt like I had no choice and that the involvement was completely natural - but at the same time I did not like the feeling of being absorbed into the stress and chaos. Realizing that I did not like what was happening, I decided to put everything aside for the moment and meditate. During meditation I quickly found the feeling of peace, love and completeness, but I also found myself drifting back into stress and chaos, almost as if I liked having that feeling, which I did not. I was finally able to stay with the feeling of peace and love, realizing the other to be a distraction.
