Balance

With my recent move into a simple house that is quite a bit smaller and in town, my life has changed dramatically.  At present, my life is quite a bit simpler, with fewer distractions and more time, than it was a few months ago.  The change allows me to spend more time in quiet contemplation/solitude and I am also in the process of increasing my social/relationship/ connection time.  In addition, I have become more aware of the importance, for me, of distractions like the process of purchasing things or setting up my new home, things that have little or no meaning but are also entertaining.  With moving my balance has shifted, which requires that I pay attention.
