Chiefly: Together*

Mindfulness of breathing
Carried over into my
Next activity:
Cooking supper.

As I prepared the meal
The rhythm of breathing
And activities
Moved together.

I could not tell how,
Or whether one
Regulated the other,
But they just synchronized.

This rhythm felt natural
And comfortable,
And as I continued to watch,
Actions matched breathing’s pace.

All movements flowed together:
Those of breathing,
And those of meal preparation,
In a Graceful,
Seamless,
Inseparable process.


*Today’s entry is the last one UNTIL May, as tomorrow I start an insight meditation course, and I really want to focus on that.

Thanks for reading!
