#27 Mindful Sunday
Today was filled with hard work, joy and mindfulness.
I feel very contented now. In the morning I called a family meeting and gathered everyone (except the baby) at the dining room table. I said we need to all work together to clean the house. We arranged to all meet at 1 p.m. and spend an hour on house cleaning. It sure felt good to see everyone working toward a common goal. The house looked better.
After that I went for a run, and I managed to complete two miles, which is a big accomplishment, since I couldn't do that the last time I tried. I am finally getting back in shape again.
And finally I led the sangha in a remarkably spiritually fulfilling session. It felt good too. We talked about the beauty of letting go of craving and desire. That is the key.
Peace...
