Practices

I can’t say that I am struggling but certainly very aware of my need to increase my practices right now — at least the ones that are left!  There is a great deal of anxiety and fear about the virus, the economy and potential job loss as well as normal worries.  In addition to that, my meetings have stopped (some have moved on line which is not the same) and Maria is staying with and caring for her mother.  So, basically, my life lacks the structure, anchors and organization it had a few weeks ago, leaving me on my own.  I continually remind myself of God’s presence, gratitude and harmony with all things all during the day.  I have also been meditating more and spending more time in my gardens.  I am aware of a dangerous tendency to relax my practices and I may need to do more.  We shall see!
