It's been so long since I just sat and listened to the rain, that I'd forgotten how wonderfully peaceful it can be.
It makes me believe I'm taking he right path by pulling back and going off-line for a while. I would certainly have missed out on this experience had I been at a bar killing brain cells tonight, like usual, instead.
I feel like I'm slowly plugging back into the universe. Slowly, for sure, but still making progress. I've gotten back into the habit of making my morning offerings, something I hadn't done in months. Even though I'm still not taking the time to meditate very often, I at least start my day off right this way. Every day starts off with a few peaceful and mindful moments at my altar as I make my offerings.
It's a small thing, but it makes a big difference.
