Stim Morane: So last time I was asking not "how do I feel in my life" but "what is happening now that gets in the way?" / there is a difference
Stim Morane: but by "seeing", which is one of my favorite words, we have to mean "fulling acknowledging and accepting" / we're not bug hunters
Overlapping with PlayasBeing, my snapshots of my 'view' this week have concerned Time.
At the start of the year, I made a resolution which I called "Right Time" with a nod to the Noble Eightfold Path : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_Eightfold_Path . My thinking was not to make a better schedule, or to determine to drop and rearrange things necessarily, but to simply watch/notice "How am I spending my time?"
Right away there did come some changes of priorities, and the focus faded into the background. Recently, due to various discussions and readings, that question has relaxed a 'me' focus, shifting toward a question more like "How am I viewing time?", or "Am I appreciating time?"
Not 'my' time, just time.
What I love about stumbling across the quotes above again, is that I felt reminded not to approach time with "What am I doing wrong that I can do better?" so much, or, even in the way I approached last week's exploration, a sense of "How can I solve this?" Those questions aren't wrong in any way, but perhaps I can take a more Generous and Open View.
((A note that I will not make this week's workshop due to my younger daughter's choral event))
