Beautiful Morning

It’s a gorgeous morning – only 70 degrees so far. I think I’ll go take a little walk before going to the office. It’s supposed to be over 100 here for a couple of days so I’m not going to want to move any more than necessary then. I’m so very thankful for air conditioning!

At the meditation class last night, the instructor was talking about the Buddhist concept of being thankful to have a human life because you have the opportunity to pursue a spiritual path. I have thought about that before, although not in those particular terms, but just how fortunate we are to be able to pursue our interests more than any other animal.

Well, if I’m going to get in a little walk and be at the office by 8 I must go. It will have to be a little walk, but you see things on a walk you miss any other way. There is a mimosa tree just a block away from me, and although I drive by it, I’d never noticed it before. The blooms smell so sweet.
