Day One Hundred and Twenty Six

I do not concentrate for long and wish to increase the amount of time with concentration. Much of the time is spent during meditation in using mindfulness to notice what is going on in mind and body; noting those things as distractions or definitions that are apart from reality. There are many layers and the truth of things is difficult to describe.

That is not to say that I know what it is, just that in trying to uncover it, there is often a sense of it that comes about but often it is hard to describe. There is a wish to describe it so that I can hold on to it. But there is nothing you can hold for very long. I learn to live with these gifts that are given to me.

There is so much metta available for me to be part of, I can let myself be part of it so that I can get closer to things without fear, without holding on. It has been a happy year, a loving year.
