Hold still, slow down all thoughts
Soften eyes and ears
A mind racing around all sports
Bends on one’s fears
Sit quietly, letting contentment in
Soften ears and eyes
Craziness begone, deep breathing begin
Hear the word of the wise
Don’t be a coward. Have the courage to be afraid.

Gratitude Journal
I am so happy and grateful to have some smart students who make me laugh a lot and bring me great joy when they want to learn.
Getting out of sync with my habits as I’m trying to push out every spare minute of time in the day but pay in the morning by having to sleep a little more. Annoyed this morning that I was in the middle of an awesome (forgotten) dream which I couldn’t get back to. I did force myself to do a little exercise though and feel better for it. Really have to force myself because it’s too easy to do too much sitting, reading and watching TV.
