He's always good conversation on a long ride home. ;)<br /><br />P- I have to hear you tell me the driver story in person. HAHAHA....I have to hear the rational.

This is why I love your blog and YOU! <br /><br />I used to think meditating was such a waste of time--if I'm not doing anything, or at least THINKING, then I am just wasting time and space, right? My life used to be all about efficiency...how much can I get done in 24 hours? I once even considered hiring a DRIVER (crazy train...) so I could have more time to get more things done while in the car. <br /><br />Seriously, is that what my world was coming to? <br /><br />I believe in your new prescription and think some of the same techniques are helping me as well.<br /><br />Your support gave me a few tears this morning, so thank you for the shout out and reminding me that this journey we are on is not silly. It is so very real and so very important. <br /><br />I can't wait to watch the video!PJHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00963805784724743878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427177962629441633.post-1121430249780757382010-12-14T21:13:59.711-08:002010-12-14T21:13:59.711-08:00I love this.

I went a whole year without eating sweets and sugar, and somehow I fell away from that. It is so hard to stay away from sugar, esp. chocolate! <br /><br />Good luck with the meditating. I really need to focus on that too. I have to drive an hour to and from work each week, and sometimes I can get really impatient. Tonight as I was driving home in the dark, I made myself focus on my breathing, and I also decided to use it as a time to talk to God with no distractions. I guess for me, meditating can be as simple as becoming more conscious about things like long drives when I'm tired and using it as a lesson in patience. <br /><br />Anyway...good stuff! I'm glad you found your balance. It's a hard path, but once you get it down, it will be worth it!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712199596384970994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2427177962629441633.post-15308731055055665822010-12-14T09:35:07.869-08:002010-12-14T09:35:07.869-08:00i called shotgun on the crazy train years ago... i...i called shotgun on the crazy train years ago... i haven't really tried meditating before, but i have the same lack-of-initiative problem with a lot of (way too many) things. i should probably get a tattoo that says "baby steps" visible in plain sight.<br /><br />thanks for the dose of inspiration, and never forget that purchasing double stuffed oreos will ALWAYS be good for the soul.Alexandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06253708658210447860noreply@blogger.com
