The other day listening to the CD for the 11th time or so,
I suddenly managed to feel deeply relaxed but part of me wanted to just leave things as they are, leave the kitchen and all the housework undone and go for a walk near the sea... Does that happen to any one else too? Or is it just I? At primary hight school one of my teachers told me I was running away from myself by not attending the maths class? Could that be true? I love maths, seriously, I got my lucky numbers, you know...
relaxed or what

Re: relaxed or what
Hi SunshineMoonshine,
The dishes and housework will still be there after you take your long walk by the sea. Balance yourself..feel at peace and the jobs we face will be less tedious. A peaceful walk with God and nature restores us by enrgizing our "life batteries."I smiled when I read your post because I did this very thing yesterday. We have been busy here and haven't taken a walk on the beach in about six weeks even though the sea is only a ten minute ride from the flat. Just as we finished breakfast George says..."Do you want to go to the beach?" Before the words were out of his mouth I was piling the breakfast dishes into the sink and grabing my shoes and overcoat. and dern it...those dirty dishes were still there when I came home... but...my attitude seemd to have improved about washing them.
Love,
Sandy

Re: relaxed or what
yep.....that happens to me all the time.....suddenly managed to feel deeply relaxed but part of me wanted to just leave things as they are, leave the kitchen and all the housework undone and go for a walk near the sea... Does that happen to any one else too? Or is it just I? At primary hight school one of my teachers told me I was running away from myself by not attending the maths class? Could that be true? I love maths, seriously, I got my lucky numbers, you know...
also, when i was attending school....my teachers said that i was always day dreamning....especially math class ( i stink at math ) i never realized until recent years, what i was doing.....i was meditating. as soon as the school bell rang and i sat at desk,,,,,in my mind...i would 'fly out the window' and go far away....to the beach
oh ...your post also reminds me of Mary,,,,,when Jesus showed up at her doorstep. Mary realized Jesus' role,,,,she recognized him for what he was, her sister did not. Mary.....went a bit sloth on the housework and attended to Jesus...the sister did not, she resumed housework and not listen to Jesus.
ever since i started 'seriously' meditating, the last few years....i have been a bit like Mary. sure i do the housework....yet...my spirituality comes first.

Re: relaxed or what
Sunshine, you should see my apartment, heh heh! But I surely will not look back over my life, at the end of my life, and wish that I'd spent more time cleaning house! Yesterday, instead of cleaning out the kitty boxes, I played hooky and went to Santa Monica pier and got on the ferris wheel at the end of the pier. As I was marvelling that this was Heaven on Earth, a very clear picture of my orange tabby, a character named Precious Ray of Sunshine, came to mind, saying he wanted his Mommy home soon. A few hours later, I walked in the door, and walked right into a lovely little mushy present he had left waiting for me right inside the door.
Served me right, but I had a wonderful day, and he was glad to see me and the box of sushi I'd brought home with me!

Every day! Lucky me though, I got me a daughter who loves to get stuck in with house cleaning....wanted to just leave things as they are, leave the kitchen and all the housework undone and go for a walk near the sea... Does that happen to any one else too?
