Today I am realizing the importance of accepting from others; in this case, a bowl of soup that I don't really want! Lol, please let there be no pork in it...apparently I have a problem here, this "accepting" area, hmm.
Today I am considering how one feeds their immediate neighbors, the people we interact with every day. There is a fine line between between bringing them brownies (inappropriately)(codependently fluffing their pillow, so to speak) and just being receptive to their needs, there in that quiet place. I've found you can direct this at others for just a moment when you are first reunited, and you are able to quickly discern what they may need--regardless of what they may be asking or saying.
Nothing . . . I called in sick and stayed in bed reading a novel.
Doing nothing, going nowhere, lost in a fantasy world someone else created, enjoying being in my pajamas, stretched out in my comfy bed.
The dog has taken a couple naps with me; the husband comes to chat with me from time to time.
Life, today, is mindlessly pleasant.

I noticed a couple times today how completely on auto pilot I was running, and I'd like your thoughts on mindfulness? It is basically just a word to me, lol. Actually I prolly just vacillate more than I'd like.
