......Relaxation / Meditation: Stillness / Earth

"Taking distance from Mind,
just watch Life's Story w/out
getting caught up in Drama."
( Osho )

The Turkey is being taken out
of the oven, potatoes are being
mashed, too many Cooks are in
the kitchen, it smells wonderful.
Relatives are arriving, kids are
playing outside, football is on TV,
new parents are showing off baby.

Taking a deep breath, I enter the
Thanksgiving Chaos, enjoy the
climactic Feast, relax into Lyrical
after-waves of Coffee & Dessert,
and find a quiet place outside to
Contemplate the years blessings.

Returning Home, I slip on my PJs,
offer left overs to Bear Dog and
try to Still my Mind from todays
days activity. Realizing Trying is
not Being, I check e-mail, turn on
TV, trim & simmer Carcass for our
annual Turkey Soup for tomorrow.
Chopping celery & veggies to add
to broth, becomes my Meditation.

"With the Mind calm, Ego quelled,
inner-turmoil can be transcended.
Relationships benefit from inner-
Stillness. Meditation renews Body
and Mind with true Relaxation."
(I-Ching #52)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Autumn Air is chilled, as I walk
outdoors into the Stillness of Night.
Sensing the presence of my Father,
who crossed over in 2006, I greet
him and then release him to Love.
Mother Earth is resting now, after
another year of Abundant Harvest.
It is time for me too, to find rest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The Movement of Stillness is
Internal, a feeling of Fullness,
of Concentration, of Vibrant
Presence. You Move in Slow
Motion, Move /Stop, Breathe.
Move /Stop, find the Stillness
in your Movement, Movement
in your Stillness."(G. Roth)
