took some time to myself and played billiards yesterday after I finished grocery shopping. It was fun. I found some guys that were playing a game that I haven't played since I was a teenager. They let me play with them. The game is very simple but often times the simplest things can be the most challenging.
I find meditation is like that. It is very easy to describe to people how t meditate. It is very difficult to do it. The mind keeps wandering away from the breathing. I do not even realize that my mind is wandering off as it is happening. It is only after my mind has gone someplace else that I realize that I am no longer thinking of the air coming and going from my belly.
Intuitively I feel that something should be easy if it is easy to describe. Oh well.
Today it is raining outside. I just woke up a few minutes ago. I think my coffee is ready now. I am planning to practice billiards some more today, then get back to work tomorrow.
Hope you are having good day. Hope your Buddha day was good.
