Well, I’ve been far too neglectful of my journalling time lately. It’s been nearly an entire week since I last wrote of my life. I haven’t felt motivated to write of the mundane aspects of my day-to-day. Perhaps that’s my fault, because I haven’t been actively seeking excitement or growth, honestly.
I’ve been neglecting meditation as well as writing for a long while now. Both are activities I find to be very rewarding and helpful in all aspects of my life. The expression, calm and clarity they provide I find difficult to find in anything else, though experiencing art and spending time with the people I love do offer the similar benefits to my external self.
Last night I decided it was time to renew my meditative efforts. I decided to ease back into it with a guided relaxing meditation. It was certainly one of the most successful I’ve attempted. I found that my awareness of my own body was enhanced noticably because of it, and I was able to enter sleep more quickly than I have as of late. I will be continuing to meditate as often as I can, with both guided, scripted and personal forms experimented with. I need to build patterns that will add to my life and be the most comfortable for me.
I’ve become interested in the concept of power animals lately, because of a few good friends mentioning them lately. I find it to be a facinating topic, as it really is a universal concept. You can find it in all religions, and all regions of the world. Alisha’s experience with this has made me think about it especially for the past couple nights. I would like to discover my own power animal or animals, whatever it may be, though I do not clearly know how I would go about doing that. I have done some research, but I know not what my experiences with this may be.
I would say I have rather undefined spiritual beliefs. That is not to say that I don’t have strong beliefs, or that I do not believe in concrete principals. I believe I am merely open to experience and learning. My belief is a cloth made from many strong threads, always weaving.
I would like to share a journal I very much enjoy reading with you. The Maui Man is a well written journal from a man in his early sixties. I find his entries to be so refreshing and genuine, lacking any pretense and sharing some positive insight into life. I have yet to read all of his entries, but I fully intend to. He’s definite proof that the online journalling trend does bring us some voices we benefit from hearing, and also that age is no boundry to, and perhaps a great asset for, being relevant.
With luck I will be meeting with my disciples Wednesday afternoon. That’s the highlight of every week for me. I always feel so much better about everything around them. Good spirits should always be treasured.
In parting, I must mention that I have an interview scheduled for 10 a.m. Thursday morning. I’m trying to be fully positive and confident about it, and I hope the effort will pay off. I’m hoping for all of your well wishes in any eventuality.
