A Good Week for Sadhana
This morning, when I was reviewing in my head some of the meetings and other work matters upcoming this week, I thought, “what a good time to practice all the things I have been studying.”

And having a homemade popsicle after a long day certainly helps make this heat wave more enjoyable.

Thoughts on Sadhana
In this realm we can be hit by a car.

Sunrise
The sky was spectacular this morning. Although it is hard to get myself out of the house at 7, it is a wonderful time of day to walk and watch the sky. Without the requirement to be across town by 8:30, will I get myself out first thing and lengthen my morning walk to work? I think yes, but not tomorrow.
