Sporadic
Posted by Kris on 6th September 2007
Yesterday I woke up at 10:00 am. Today I wake up at 4:30 am. Another week driven by my senses. Although the picture opportunities are nice, I wish that it would cease raining so that I could visit the forest comfortably.
Finally, I get paid to do what I love. This was exemplified on Tuesday of this week as I went along another typical day, creating fire models for the Fire Dynamics course and readying my lecture handouts. Later in the same day, I was told that would be my first paid working day. Instantly a feeling of satisfaction came across me. I quickly knew that something had gone right. In doing what I like to do, day after day, that day was no different. I learn, grow, and build, and I was doing just that, regardless if I was getting paid or not - what is known as value. A value of my own. Missing lunch on accident because I am too drawn into the dynamics of fire. Getting lost on a certain topic during a lecture that is newer within me. That value then translates to others. A value for others. It was a good day.
Mind wandering is easy, yet taxing. And value is deep inside the quiet.
I lead you to two articles from Meditation on Meaning. I think that you will like them. They came at a good time for me.
