Taking a Walk

Last evening, I went for a walk around the park. The sun was still out, there was a warm breeze. Everything seemed "right," and better still was the fact that I was with Deb and the kids. For me these are the best moments. Just taking the opportunity to "share," time, because we are all usually so busy and "doing our own thing."

As we walked around the park our oldest daughter did something which is very rare for someone her age. She talked and laughed with us. She wickedly smart but has a great sense of humor to match. Our youngest hopped and jumped over twigs, cracks in the even gaps in the sidewalk, kept asking "what's that... what's that... what's that... and was amazed with dandelions.

This was so analog, basic and yet so perfect because there was a period of experiencing, "No gaps." There was no agendas, no goal or purpose, just being. You could not even feel the time move. It was entering a stream, without complication.

Once we arrived back at the house, I felt grateful. I have to remember that these things are equally, if not more important than all the normal This Buddha-Mind Itself.

May Your Life Go Well,
