"This time it is not oceans that separate me from my countries leaders, but a thick haze of half truths and PR spin. I don’t understand what is happening. I don't trust those in power. The world landscape is so blurry and surreal that I cannot "feel" it.

I will continue to pray. Not for some specific outcome, but for peace and clarity.

When I asked that little zen master what I should be thinking about as I sat on the floor in silence, he replied, "Just sit. I sat for 10 years before I knew why I was sitting."
"but, I.."
"Just sit."

Perhaps, today, I will sit. "

thanks for this entry, halcyon.

we should all sit, i think.
