Being and Doing

This was a quiet day, a day of exercise, self-care, meditating, asking for guidance and some cooking. The day began shortly after midnight with a period of prayer and meditation followed by several hours of sleep and then beginning the next part of my day at seven. I exercised, did some stretching, Tai Chi and mowed the front lawn, which ends up being good physical therapy. In the afternoon, during the heat of the day, I did more exercising, contemplation and some cooking. During all of these activities I tried to be patient, at peace, grateful and present. It was a good day.
