Still looking

Posted 03-10-2010 at 01:39 AM by Pollwr

I am still looking for that meditation quotation. I am sure I read something written by Abdul Bahá.
I recall it referred to being able to put a question to yourself when meditating. ...

Just t'inkin'

Posted 03-04-2010 at 07:43 AM by Pollwr

Well, I didn't have much to say for a while but now I do. Sometimes my mind is only full of questions about what is going on in my mind!

Don't you hate it when you cannot find the quotation that you really want. I recalled part of a great quotation on meditation, which is what I am thinking about at the moment, and can I find it? NO. I found a good one that I have pasted in below.

There are certainly gaps in my understanding that I am hoping to unlock this fast....

Decisions and consequences

Posted 02-05-2010 at 05:04 PM by Pollwr

Parenting a teenager can cause one to think a little more about free will. You can be constantly trying to judge how much freedom to give them, knowing full well that in not too long they will be totally responsible for themselves. They need to learn gradually.

And really, they are not a lot of help with that sort of decision, wanting total freedom one minute and then security and no responsibility the next. Maybe I exaggerate a little but parenting is full of hard decisions....

Paperwork and accounting

Posted 01-12-2010 at 04:12 AM by Pollwr

That time has come around again when a great pile of papers has formed on my desk and in my handbag and on one or two other surfaces in my home and it is my job to sort and dump or file and action some things.

It reminds me of how I should deal with things as they come up rather than putting them off.

It also reminds me of some more important things that I should be taking care of on a regular basis:

"O SON OF BEING!
Bring thyself to account...

Changing the calendar

Posted 01-02-2010 at 06:51 AM by Pollwr

Yesterday I changed the calendar hung on my wall and that caused me to reflect. There was an old friend, overseas who always sent me a calendar and I always used it, putting it on the kitchen wall. He passed away this year and so that was the last of the calendar's that he would send me. I did not buy a new one or even have to use the free one from the phone company. This year I have made some new friends and cooincidentally one of them had given me a new calendar of thier own photos before...
