There s always noise although I tune it out. Today I hear a distant plane, a dog barks somewhere far away, the heater just when on, and the computer emits a low-level buzz. I shift to smell, finding still a trace of skunk in the air. The taste buds are registering sort of a milky mouth feel. I sense the space I m filling in the room.
All systems go.
Mindful and ready to seize the day. Learning is a pleasure. I love it. Like the artist who works as a janitor to pay for his oils, I work for the luxury of being able to learn. I d grow into an insanely curious fulltime learner.
